Ingredients

Instructions

  • Heat the oil in a large pot over medium heat. Add the ground beef, onion, basil, salt, and black pepper. Cook, breaking up the beef with a wooden spoon, until the meat is browned and the onion is soft, about 8–10 minutes.
  • Stir in the garlic and cook until fragrant, about 1 minute.
  • Pour in the crushed tomatoes and vegetable broth. Stir to combine, then bring the mixture to a boil. Reduce the heat to low and let it simmer uncovered for 15 minutes, stirring occasionally.
  • Add the ravioli and cook until al dente, 5–8 minutes.
  • Ladle into bowls and top with grated Parmesan cheese and fresh basil, if desired.

Notes

The nutrition label does not include optional parmesan cheese garnish.
  • My Top Tip: Choose a big enough pot. You want there to be enough room so the ground beef browns well! If you have a 5- or 7-quart Dutch oven or stockpot, I'd use that!
  • Storage: Store any leftovers in an airtight container. They will last about 3-4 days in the fridge. 
  • Freezing. This soup will last in the freezer in a freezer-safe container for up to 3 months. When ready to eat, just thaw in the fridge before reheating on the stovetop or in the microwave.
