Family food at it's finest. We used to make a version of this at Thermomix cooking classes, not sure what they make these days. This is my version.

Pasta Fagioli meaning pasta and beans, is a traditional Italian peasant dish. Like all great Italian dishes, it relies on beautiful ingredients. It is ultra simple but so delicious. The recipe varies greatly based on the region or town in which it is prepared, depending on available ingredients. The consistency of the dish can vary, with some being soupy, while others are much thicker. This one is somewhere in the middle but will definitely thicken on standing. It is not unlike the flavours of minestrone, that other fantastic Italian staple.

We are pretty sure you will love it! We sure did.
