Pasta Fagioli Vegetables

On a dreary, cold winter night when you’re tired and in need of solace, make this heartwarming dish of beans and pasta. You’ll derive comfort both from its soothing flavor and from the fact that it requires a minimum of preparation and very little clean-up.

My version of pasta fagioli, an Italian comfort dish par excellence, is inauthentic, but it’s loaded with restorative vegetables and rich in homemade goodness.
