Notes

To enhance the flavor, toast the dried herbs (basil and oregano) before adding them to the soup. Store the soup in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 5 days, or freeze for up to 3 months. For best texture, store pasta and soup separately if possible. For extra flavor, consider adding red pepper flakes or white wine during cooking. Top with croutons or toasted breadcrumbs for added texture.
