Ingredients

    2 28oz cans low sodium diced tomatoes with juice
    4 to 6 cups water
    2 tbsp garlic powder
    2 tsp salt or to taste
    1 tsp black pepper or to taste ( you can substitute red pepper flakes for this if you want heat)
    1 tbsp dried parsley
    3 cups frozen sweet peas, defrosted
    12 oz uncooked Barilla Cellentani, about 3/4 of a box(or any short-cut pasta you like)
    2 tsp sugar (if the soup is too sour)
    Romano Cheese (optional)

Directions

In a 6 quart sauce pot, blend tomatoes, 3 cups water, garlic powder, salt, pepper, parsley, and peas. Bring to a boil, stirring frequently. Lower to a high simmer, add pasta. Bring back to simmer, stir every five minutes, add water if soup is too thick. Cook until pasta is tender. Add sugar if necessary. Serve with your favorite grating cheese.

Makes eight 12 oz servings.

FYI, if this soup is stored overnight, the pasta will absorb most of the liquid. Don't dilute. Just put on a layer of shredded asiago, provolone, or mozarella and have it as a side dish.
