Instructions

1. 1

   In a large pot or Dutch oven, add the ground beef and Italian sausage. Cook over medium heat for 5 to 7 minutes, breaking it apart with a spoon, until browned and mostly cooked through.

2. 2

   Add the diced onion and cook for 2 to 3 minutes, until softened. Stir in the minced garlic and cook for 1 minute, until fragrant.

3. 3

   Stir in the tomato paste, crushed tomatoes, and tomato sauce. Mix well to combine.

4. 4

   Add the salt, pepper, oregano, and basil. Pour in the broth, stir, and bring the soup to a gentle boil.

5. 5

   Add the ziti directly into the pot. Reduce heat to medium and cook for 8 to 10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the pasta is al dente.

6. 6

   Pour in the heavy cream and stir in the Parmesan and shredded mozzarella. Continue stirring until the cheeses melt and the soup becomes rich and creamy.
