Known as pasta e patate, this rustic Italian carb-on-carb soup is hearty and satisfying, and it comes together easily with ingredients you likely already have in the pantry. It’s also a great way to use up those odds and ends of pasta lingering in your cupboard, so feel free to mix whatever small shapes you have on hand. To boost the flavor, add some simple garnishes; see suggestions below.

Simple, feel good soup.
I had a sick kid at home and wanted to make a simple soup with what I had on hand. This recipe hit the mark on all of the levels.

Why is printed recipe for Potato & Pasta Soup different from the video?
TV recipe called for celery, white wine, fresh tomatoes, and most importantly NOT Yukon Gold potatoes! TV presentation looked very good, print not too impressive. ?????
