Mix paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, and pepper. Set aside.

Meanwhile, cook pasta according to package directions; drain.
Saut onion and garlic in a small saucepan sprayed with vegetable spray until onion is soft. Add broth, tomato, fresh herbs and reserved Cajun spice. Simmer for 8 minutes. Season with salt to taste.
