PASTA BEEF SOUP



Pasta Beef Soup image

Convenient canned goods, tomato juice and a frozen pasta-vegetable medley make it flavorful and fast. But it's also flexible because you can use other ingredients, such as a different frozen pasta-vegetable blend. On occasion, I stir in shredded zucchini or yellow squash, too.-Brenda Jackson, Garden City, Kansas

Provided by Kare for Kitchen Treaty

Time 8h15m

Number Of Ingredients 18

2 teaspoons olive oil
1 medium onion (diced)
2 medium cloves garlic (minced)
2 teaspoons Italian seasoning
1/2 teaspon kosher salt
1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black poepper
4 cups vegetable broth
1/2 small green cabbage (finely chopped (4 cups))
3 medium carrots (peeled and diced (1 cup))
1 medium zucchini (diced (optional))
1 15-ounce can kidney beans, drained and rinsed
1 14-ounce can diced tomatoes
1 cup small pasta of your choice
2 tablespoons red wine vinegar
Additional salt and pepper to taste
Optional toppings: Fresh basil and/or parsley (drizzle of olive oil, shredded Parmesan cheese)
1/2 pound lean ground beef
1 pound lean ground beef

Steps:

  • Drizzle the olive oil into a large saute pan set over medium heat. Add the onions and cook, stirring occasionally, until softened, about 5 minutes. Add the garlic, Italian seasoning, salt, and pepper and cook, stirring once or twice, for 1 minute. Splash in about 1/2 cup of the vegetable broth and scrape up any bits that are stuck to the bottom of the pan. Pour into slow cooker.
  • To the slow cooker, add remaining vegetable broth, cabbage, carrots, zucchini if using, beans, and tomatoes. (If you're adding 1 pound ground beef to the entire batch, you can cook and drain ground beef well and add it now.) Cook for 8 hours on low (5-6 hours on high should also do the trick).
  • 30 minutes before the cooking process ends, add pasta and put lid back on the Crock Pot.* Continue cooking on low until tender.
  • *At this point, if you're adding ground beef to half, set a large saucepan over medium heat, add the 1/2 pound ground beef, and cook, stirring occasionally, until cooked through, 10-15 minutes. Drain any excess fat. Transfer a little less than half the soup to the pan with the ground beef and let simmer, covered, until pasta is completely tender and soup is heated through.
  • Stir in red wine vinegar (divide between separate pots if doing the half-meaty version) and taste. Add additional salt and pepper if desired.
  • Serve topped with chopped parsley and/or basil, a drizzle of olive oil, and pass with Parmesan cheese if desired.

Tips:

  • Choose the right pasta. Smaller pasta shapes like ditalini, acini di pepe, orzo, or elbow macaroni are traditional choices for pasta e fagioli, but you can use any short pasta shape. Avoid long pasta like spaghetti or linguine.
  • Use a good quality beef broth. This is the foundation of the soup, so make sure it's flavorful and rich. You can use homemade broth, canned broth, or bouillon cubes.
  • Don't overcook the pasta. It should be cooked al dente, so that it still has a slight bite to it. Overcooked pasta will make the soup mushy.
  • Add plenty of vegetables. This will make the soup more nutritious and flavorful. Some good options include carrots, celery, onions, garlic, and tomatoes.
  • Use a variety of beans. This will add different flavors and textures to the soup. Some good options include cannellini beans, Great Northern beans, and kidney beans.

Conclusion:

Pasta e fagioli is a hearty, flavorful soup that is perfect for a cold winter day. It is also a very economical soup to make, as it uses inexpensive ingredients. With its simple ingredients and easy-to-follow instructions, this soup is a great option for busy weeknights.
