Pasta e Fagioli Soup {Olive Garden Copycat Recipe}

Made it with chicken sausages. Next time, I would add more veggies to make it more of a minestrone.

Really good!! Evie LOVED it. ** makes a lot. We froze 2/3 of it

I have tried many Pasta Fagioli recipes and this one is a clear winner. Savory and easy to make. I love soup so when I make it, I do a recipe and a half and the half goes into canning jars so I have soup for a few weeks.

So delicious, loved all of the Italian seasonings and trying ditalini pasta for the first time.

Need to add more broth but will make again

This was delicious, but I did tweak it. I doubled the spices, garlic included, and added 2 tsp of dried cilantro, 3 bay leaves, and 1/3 tsp of pepper flakes. I didn't have marjoram, so it was omitted. I had a 28-ounce can of diced tomatoes and a 15-ounce can of tomato sauce, which is opposite of what the recipe calls for. I thought it was better, but I really like chunks of tomatoes in my sauces. I also added some V8 juice to thin it some. This makes a huge batch and is very filling.

My kid loves this stuff!

This was so good. Definitely going into the permanent rotation. I did change things a little. I cooked the beans and pasta in the pot along with everything else and added a chunk of Parmesan cheese rind while it simmered.
