Yes, today I am working on reducing my 3" (bulging full) "Hot Soup" binder and came across this one. It looks quick and easy for a chilling day. Was I surprised to find it on line. Here 'tis.

Ingredients​

  • 1 tbsp. olive oil
  • 1 medium onion
  • Kosher salt and pepper
  • 1 clove garlic
  • 6 c. low-sodium chicken broth
  • 1 1/2 c. farfallini (small bowtie pasta) or other small pasta
  • 2 can cannellini beans
  • 1 can diced tomatoes in juice
  • 1/2 c. fresh flat-leaf parsley
  • 1/4 c. grated Parmesan

Directions​

  • Step 1: Heat the oil in a large saucepan over medium-high heat. Add the onion and ¼ tsp each salt and pepper, and cook, stirring, until beginning to soften, 4 to 5 minutes. Add the garlic and cook, stirring, for 1 minute (do not let it brown).
  • Step 2: Add the broth and pasta and bring to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer until the pasta is just tender, 8 to 10 minutes.
  • Step 3: Stir in the beans and tomatoes and cook until heated through, about 2 minutes. Remove from heat and stir in the parsley. Serve with the Parmesan.

and yes, I know what it is, I grew up with a Italian step-grandfather who cooked this all the time. 🥰
