Mommy's Pasta Fagioli

 

 

This recipe comes from the new 101 Farmhouse Favorites cookbook from Gooseberry Patch. 

 

This recipe not only tastes great but is also easy! My favorite kind!

 

Start by sauteing the onions and celery in the butter. 

 

Add the chicken broth, tomato puree and seasonings. Bring ingredients to a boil and then simmer for an hour or so.

 

Add the beans and cooked pasta and bring back up to a boil and serve!
