Fiesta Pasta Soup

Jump to Recipe Print Recipe

Fiesta Pasta Soup is two meals in one. Its a soup but with body to make it warming and filling. I use smoked sausage in my recipe but any sausage will do. The entire dish is so full of flavour with chillies, cilantro and black beans and more creating a soup that is ideal for hefty appetites.

A filling soup with added vermicelli for body, texture and heat.
