Ingredients

19oz (2 1/3 cups) canned cannellini beans, drained (reserve liquid)

1/4 cup water, divided

1 small onion, minced

5 cloves garlic, minced

1 tbsp dried sage

1 tsp dried rosemary

3 tbsp tomato paste

Reserved bean-cooking liquid + water to equal 4 cups

3 cups (about 7 oz) chopped curly kale

1 cup dried whole wheat macaroni

1 tsp Tabasco

Directions

Combine 1/2 cup of the cooked beans and 2 tbsp of water in a food processor until smooth. Set aside.

Cook onion in the remaining 2 tbsp water until soft and translucent, about 3 to 4 minutes.

Add garlic, sage, and rosemary, and cook for 1 minute, stirring constantly.

Add bean liquid and water and let simmer for 20 minutes.

Stir in kale, remaining beans, pasta and bean puree, and season with pepper sauce.

Cook 5 minutes, until pasta is al dente and beans are hot.

Adjust salt and pepper if necessary and serve.

I love Pasta Fagioli. When I was a teenager I had a boss from Sicily and she used to make this for me. I really miss it. One of my kids is vegan and it can be so hard to find things to accomodate it. Can't wait to try this out!
