Pronounced "pasta fazhool" here in New York, this is a killer hearty soup and one of the best Italian dishes around. Good pasta e f*gioli will make a grown man cry.
Ingredients:
* 2 stalks celery, chopped * 1 medium onion, chopped * 3 cloves garlic, minced * 1 to 2 teaspoons parsley * 1 to 2 teaspoons Italian seasoning * 1/4 teaspoon crushed red pepper * salt to taste * 1 (14.5 ounce) can chicken broth (I use veggie broth) * 2 medium tomatoes, peeled and chopped * 1 (8 ounce) can tomato sauce * 1/2 to 3/4 cup uncooked small shell or elbow macaroni * 1 (16 ounce) can cannellini beans or white kidney beans, undrained * grated Parmesan cheese
(1) Saute celery, onion, garlic, parsley, Italian seasoning, red pepper and salt. Add chicken broth, tomatoes, and tomato sauce, and simmer on low for 15 to 20 minutes.
(2) Add pasta and cook 10 to 15 minutes until pasta is tender.
(3) Add undrained beans and mix well. Serve with grated Parmesan cheese sprinkled on top.
