PASTA E FAGIOLI RECIPE BY TASTY

Steps:

• Sauté whole garlic, fresh rosemary shallot and carrot in some olive oil until soft.
• Then add tomato sauce, mix and add half of the cooked beans. Now add vegetable stock and bring to a boil.
• Add your pasta and make sure it's submerged. Add more if it absorbs too much. Cook for 10-12 minutes (check the package). When the pasta is al dente. turn the heat on high so some of the water evaporates (it should not be too much like a soup, but it should be creamy).
• At this point add the blended beans and mix to combine. Remove whole garlic and rosemary. Season to taste with salt and pepper.
• Serve.

Steps:

• Drizzle the olive oil into a large saute pan set over medium heat. Add the onions and cook, stirring occasionally, until softened, about 5 minutes. Add the garlic, Italian seasoning, salt, and pepper and cook, stirring once or twice, for 1 minute. Splash in about 1/2 cup of the vegetable broth and scrape up any bits that are stuck to the bottom of the pan. Pour into slow cooker.
• To the slow cooker, add remaining vegetable broth, cabbage, carrots, zucchini if using, beans, and tomatoes. (If you're adding 1 pound ground beef to the entire batch, you can cook and drain ground beef well and add it now.) Cook for 8 hours on low (5-6 hours on high should also do the trick).
• 30 minutes before the cooking process ends, add pasta and put lid back on the Crock Pot.* Continue cooking on low until tender.
• *At this point, if you're adding ground beef to half, set a large saucepan over medium heat, add the 1/2 pound ground beef, and cook, stirring occasionally, until cooked through, 10-15 minutes. Drain any excess fat. Transfer a little less than half the soup to the pan with the ground beef and let simmer, covered, until pasta is completely tender and soup is heated through.
• Stir in red wine vinegar (divide between separate pots if doing the half-meaty version) and taste. Add additional salt and pepper if desired.
• Serve topped with chopped parsley and/or basil, a drizzle of olive oil, and pass with Parmesan cheese if desired.
