Italian Escarole And White Bean Soup
- 10 ounces ditalini pasta (use brown rice pasta for gluten-free)
- Kosher salt
- 1 teaspoon olive oil
- 1 medium onion, chopped
- 8 cups (64 ounces)
- Swanson's 33% less sodium chicken or vegetable broth*
- 1 (15-ounce) can cannellini beans* rinsed and drained
- Freshly cracked black pepper
- 1 head escarole, leaves washed and torn into a few pieces
- Freshly grated Parmigiano-Reggiano cheese, for serving (optional)
- Cook the pasta to al dente in a pot of salted water. Drain and set aside.
- Heat a large nonstick pot over medium heat.
- When hot, add the oil and onion and cook, stirring, until golden, 3 to 4 minutes. Add the broth and beans and bring to a boil. Season with black pepper to taste, and then add the escarole. Cook until the escarole wilts, about 15 minutes.
