This was created as a dinner entree with the hope of satisfying my husband's hungry appetite. Success! He loved it, along with a slice of whole grain bread to mop up every last drop.

Tips

I didn't want to put a prep time, because the beans get soaked overnight. But basically, its a simple and quick meal to make. And you might want to take a bowl to work the next day.


Directions

Soak beans overnight and cook as directed on pkg.
Also cook pasta al dente as directed on pkg.
Drain both and put in soup pot

Meanwhile, warm the oil and saute the garlic, onion, celery, and carrot till tender. Put into soup pot and add the remaining ingredients. Bring to a simmer, and cook 10-15 minutes.

Serving Size: makes about 5 servings, 1 1/2 cup each
