***** FANTASTIC ******
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

5 Star! This soup is testimony of simple ingredients delivering delicious flavor! All that you would expect from a Pasta e... Fagioli. A nice meal to bring to a friend or family. Soothing and light. Freshly grated parmesan cheese on each individual bowl prior to serving enhances the already wonderful flavor. For a meal serve with a mixed green salad and bread. Read more

Best Pasta e Fagioli Ever!
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

My family loves this soup. I did not add the celery because my husband picks it out but it was absolutely wonderful! I made... a huge pot and froze it in individual size bowls. It defrost and cooks perfectly in the microwave in minutes for a quick and easy lunch or dinner!Read more

Easy and Delicious!!
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

I made this soup for a big family gathering and served it with fresh ciabatt bread. Everybody loved it! Several people... asked for the recipe. I followed the recipe but used some tomato puree instead of just whole tomatoes. After the soup sat for awhile, the ditalini managed to soak up all the broth, so I had to add more--not sure how much, but quite a bit. But really, you can add just as much as you need to get the desired consistency. I made a triple batch, and now have some in the freezer for another meal. YUM!Read more
