10 cups chicken or beef stock
8 oz. Pomi Crushed Tomatoes

Your soup looks fantastic! And wow on your pictures---do you take them yourself? I love your taste (the dining room, garden views, soup piled with Parmesan...). You take the pictures I want to sit in;).
ReplyDeleteThank you Janelle. Some are my pictures, others aren't and they are credited at the bottom. You can come and sit anytime!
ReplyDeleteI'm not much of a cook, but I will definitely try out this recipe! I totally agree with Janelle - the soup looks great and the ingredients remind me of food my mom makes. :) I love it!
ReplyDeleteThat pasta fagioli is pretty world famous.. It's a friend and family favorite.
