Italian-Style Beans And Pasta

Cuisine: Italian
Serves: 8 people

Recipe Ingredients

1   Garbanzo beans
1   Great northern beans
1   Red kidney beans
1   Diced cooked - (1 to 2)
  Tomatoes
2   Carrots (large)
1   Onions - chopped (1 to 2) (large)
2   Chopped - (2 to 6)
  Garlic
2   Carrots - cut in thin strips (large)
2   Celery - cut in
  Chunks
3 tablespoons 45ml-- (3 to 4)
  Italian seasoning
1/4 teaspoon 1.3mlRed pepper flakes
1/2 lb 227g / 8ozPasta

Recipe Instructions

Sauteegarlic and onion till soft. Add beans (entire can) and tomatoes and 3 ca ns of water. When hot, add Italian Seasoning. Bring to a boil, then cook till sp ices are well-blended. Add pasta, carrots and celery and cook till pasta is ready - - about ten minutes. Carrots should be slightly crunchy. Adjust seasonings if desired. This makes a thick stew. If you like it wetter, use more water.

I expect you could lower the fat by reducing the amount of beans. This is an adaptation of a recipe calling for sausage and other meat. You can add non-fat Parmesan cheese at the table if you want.

Serves 8 or 9.
