Tasha's Homemade Pasta E Fagioli Soup

Here's a recipe I made alot when I was on WW cuz it was only a point a Cup and super yummy! every one always asks me to make it! veggies are really whatever you like I like to bulk it up with lots of veg. i would have used Whole wheat pasta but i didn't this time depending on how noodly you like it do 1/2 to 1 C

I wish there was a recipe calculator to add home made foods, i had to work out what each ingredient was before I could add it as a whole recipe to the database -- tedious lol:grumble:

it's in the data base as Tasha's Pasta E Fagioli

** Bacon - Bacon, 1 strips 25 0 2 1 0 0 [the recipe calls for 6 strips - i find this too strong but none lacks the bit of flavor it gives, so one or 2 is good - could sub a turkey bacon i suppose]
**Tubetti Pasta- Enriched Macaroni Product, 1 cup (56g) 601 123 3 21 6 3
**Canned White Kidney Beans, 1 container (2 cups ea.) 440 72 2 32 22 0
** Canned Diced Tomatoes, 1 container (3 cup (125 ml) ea.) 150 36 0 6 6 24
**Chicken Broth Fat Free Rdcd Sodium, 1 container (4 cups ea.) 40 0 0 8 0 4
**Onions - Raw, 1 medium (2-1/2" dia) 46 11 0 1 2 5 remove
**Leeks - (bulb and lower leaf-portion), raw, 1 leek 54 13 0 1 2 3 [optional]
**Carrots - Raw, 3 medium 75 18 0 2 5 8 remove
**Celery - Raw, 4 stalk large (11"-12" long) 35 7 0 2 4 5 remove
approx 4 cups water
tomatoe paste is optional i didn't include it here
any spices you like: i put garlic, oregano, basil,

cook up your bacon, then add all your diced veggies til onions and celery are translucent, add everything else [you can reserve 1/4 of the beans and mash them and add them at the end to thicken it a bit, i dont bother] and i dont add the noodles til all the veggies are tender so that they are not all bloated and over cooked

This sounds yummy! I'm always looking for easy recipes that are low in calories.

A couple of quick questions. Have you ever frozen small containers? I'm always looking for things I can freeze and take to work for lunch.

Also, the white kidney beans. I don't usually buy a lot of beans, do you mean a can or bag of beans? Do you measure out 2 cups?

Thank you!!

oops sorry!:blushing:

I edited my post to as well

canned beans - drain/rinse them and dump them in

and cook up the bacon before adding anything in the pot

crap I keep having to edit cuz i forget things! lol
