Pasta Fagioli
- 2 teaspoons Olive Oil
- 2 cloves Garlic
- 2 whole Small Zucchini, Diced
- 2 whole Carrots, Sliced Thin
- 1 can (16 Oz. Can) Diced Tomatoes
- 8 cups Beef Broth (I Like Swanson Or A Combination Of Swanson And Beef Bouillon Cubes Plus Water To Equal 8 Cups)
- 1/4 teaspoons White Pepper (must Have!)
- 1/4 teaspoons Black Pepper
- 1/2 teaspoons Dried Basil, Or 2 Tablespoons Fresh Basil
- 1/3 boxes (16 Oz. Box) Ditalini Pasta
- 1 can (15 Oz. Can) White Kidney Beans (Cannellini), Rinse And Drain
- 1 cup Parmesan Cheese To Garnish
- Heat oil in a small soup pan over low heat. Add 2 cloves of minced garlic and saute until soft for about 2 minutes. Do not let the garlic brown.
- Add zucchini, carrots, and canned diced tomatoes and saute for another minute. Add broth, pepper, basil and let it simmer for 30 minutes until vegetables are soft. Add 1/3 box of Ditalini pasta, stir and cook for 5 to 7 minutes. (You don't want to cook these all the way.) Remove from heat. Add cannellini beans.
- Pasta will continue to cook in the hot broth for another 5 minutes.
- Serve with Parmesan cheese on top!
