Pasta Fagioli

Pasta Fagioli                         

1 onion                                     2 15 oz. cans Italian tomatoes

2 cloves garlic                          2 15 oz. cans Great White Northern Beans

1 lb. Italian sausage                   about 1 lb. pasta, any type

Saute onion and garlic with sausage.  Add tomatoes and beans.  (If you

don’t want that many beans, puree one can to make a thicker broth.)

While sausage mixture is simmering, cook pasta in a separate pot,

reserving water.  Add pasta to sausage mixture, adding some of the

reserved water if it gets too thick.  The consistency should be like chili

NOTE: I usually leave the pasta out.  It gets too slimy for me!
