Steph's Pick | Pasta Fagioli

It's almost embarrassing when the temperatures drop into the 80's here in AZ and we throw up our hands (and put on our sweaters) because we're thrilled the "fall" has arrived :)


Even if it's embarrassing to admit - it's the truth! I found myself so excited that I could actually make delicious pumpkin desserts (remember THIS treat) AND soup! Mmmmmmm....

Here's a Pasta Fagioli recipe I made last night that was delicious! Recipe taken from AllRecipes.com and adapted by yours truly :)

  • 2 stalks celery, chopped

  • salt to taste
  • 2 (14.5 ounce) cans chicken broth
  • 1 1/2 (14.5 ounce) cans of Italian diced tomatoes
  • 1 (8 ounce) can tomato sauce
  • 1/2 cup uncooked Ditalini (small circular) pasta
  • 1 (15 ounce) can cannellini beans, with liquid

Directions
