Pasta e fagioli: a classic of our cuisine.
A heart-warming dish, typical of poor but healthy cuisine. Simple, nutritious and tasty, it is perfect for warming up cold winter days.
Super simple if you use canned beans (not the ideal choice but an acceptable compromise). In this specific case you need 150g of dried beans, which corresponds to about 400g of cooked beans.
The type of pasta is up to your discretion but short pasta is preferred. For this recipe I used fresh orecchiette.
