Some people wanted the pasta fagioli recipe
So here it is:
Pasta Fagioli
1 medium onion
4 stalks of celery
5-10 cloves of garlic
1 small pkg of fresh baby cut carrots
1 can of garbanzo beans
1 can of white cannellini beans
1 1lb pkg of elbow noodles
Salt
Pepper
Olive oil
3 bay leafs
There is nothing you can do to make this wrong.
Use any bean you want and change the ingredients to
What you would like.
Choose a 4 qt sauce pan
Drain and rinse beans
Chop garlic cloves fine
Dice onions and celery fine
3 tblsp of olive oil in pan
Sauté garlic till lightly brown
Toss in onion and celery
Season with cracked pepper
Sauté until onion is clear
Toss in carrots
Toss in beans
Fill pan with water or chicken broth( you will be putting in pasta so leave some room )
Toss in bay leaf
Bring to a boil
Salt water to taste
Simmer on med until carrots are tender about 15 min
Pour in pkg of pasta
Simmer for 15 mins till pasta is over done. ( pasta water thickens the soup )
I throw in chopped broccoli crowns now for color
Simmer for 5 more minutes for crowns
Ladle in to bowl top with good olive oil
Enjoy
Variations
1) Use bacon or panchetta for the inital garlic saute.
2) Throw in any veggies you like mushrooms, squash
3) Throw in some smoked ham in the boil. Then let boil longer for flavor.
