Ingredients

Scale

14 oz canned beans

14 oz ditalini pasta

a clove of garlic (peeled)

a carrot, a celery stick, and half an onion (finely diced)

4 peeled Roma tomatoes or 2 tbsp tomato paste.

2 cups vegetable broth

A drizzle of olive oil

​Parmesan cheese to taste (optional)*

Instructions

  1. In a large pot, heat some extra virgin olive oil. Rub the peeled garlic against the pot’s surface and sauté for about 30 seconds.
  2. Add diced carrot, onion, and celery. Sauté for a minute, then add a ladle of vegetable broth and stew until evaporated, about 10 minutes.
