Lark’s Recipe of the Week: Pasta de Fagoli

by

My husband is not a big soup kind of guy. And he likes this soup!

I am not even going to tell him it is a low fat/healthy soup. (lol)

This makes a LARGE pot of soup, perfect to share with a friend.

1 lb. extra lean ground beef; cooked & seasoned

1 C. shredded carrot

1 C. chopped celery

1 C. fresh zucchini; diced

1/2 C. onion, chopped

2 (14.5 oz.) Hunt’s Diced Tomatoes with Basil, Garlic and Oregano

2 (14.5 oz.) 99% fat free beef broth

1 (15.5oz.) red kidney beans, drained

1 (15.5 oz.) Great Northern beans, drained

2 (8 oz.) Hunt’s Tomato Sauce Basil, Garlic and Oregano

1 (24 oz.) Hunt’s Spaghetti Sauce Traditional

10 oz. pkg. small pasta;uncooked

2 tsp. Italian seasoning

2 tsp. ground oregano

4 TBSP Frank’s RedHot sauce

Pepper

Place the fresh veggies in large pot and saute for two minutes. Add in the cooked meat plus all other ingredients, except the pasta. Simmer for 15 minutes. Then add in pasta and cook on low for 40 more minutes.

Now all you need is a side of breadsticks!

Soup with a smile,

Lark
