Though I am a vegetarian I can leave out the meat and enjoy the wonders of this most fabulous dish. I love it.


Boy oh Boy! Oops ... I should say Neutral Gender oh Nonspecific Gender! I LOVE the sound of this pasta dish. (You've got me running to Wikipedia again with a bean I never heard of.)
Thanks for the yummy Post.


Now I love the escarole and cannellini beans.
Bring on the garlic too.
Five forks for this wonderful recipe
