Ingredients
- 2 Tbsp olive oil
- 1 onion, diced
- 2 cloves garlic (or ½ tsp garlic powder)
- 1 carrot, sliced
- 1 rib celery, diced
- 6 c broth, chicken or vegetable (we prefer low sodium)
- 2 cups crushed tomatoes (or petite diced)
- 3 cups cooked White beans (or canned and drained) (1/2 lb dry beans, cooked)
- 2 bay leaves
- 1 tsp thyme
- 1 tsp rosemary
- ½ lb dry pasta (elbows or ditali are traditional)
- salt (to taste)
- pepper (to taste)
- 1 Tbsp tomato paste (optional)
- Fresh grated Parmesan Cheese (to top)
Instructions
- In a 4 quart soup pot, heat the olive oil over medium high heat. Add the onions and garlic. Saute 2-3 minutes, until the onions start to soften. Add the carrots and celery and sauté for an additional 2-3 minutes.
- Add the broth, tomatoes, cooked beans, bay, thyme, and rosemary. Bring the mixture to a simmer.
- Add the dry pasta and simmer until the pasta is just al dente (roughly 8 minutes). (The pasta will continue to cook and soften as it sets in the hot soup.)
- Taste the soup and adjust salt and pepper as needed.
- (Optional: Mix in the tomato paste if you’d like your soup to have a stronger tomato flavor.) Remove bay leaves and serve the soup topped with Parmesan cheese.
