pasta e fagioli soup

I've been on a soup kick lately, and I made pasta e fagioli a few weeks ago. I found this recipe and it was super easy!

here are the ingredients :)

cut up your veggies!

brown your ground beef!

rinse your beans!

You literally dump everything (so don't let the long list of stuff scare you) into the crockpot except the ground beef and pasta. Stir it up, and then add the ground beef. Let cook on low for 6-8 hours or on high for 4-5. I boiled my pasta separately and added it at the last minute, based on some other reviews. YUM!

Ingredients:

• 1 pound ground beef, cooked and drained
• 1 small onion, finely diced
• 2 carrots, finely diced
• 2 stalks celery, finely diced
• 1 can diced tomatoes, NOT drained
• 1 can dark red kidney beans, drained and rinsed
• 1 can cannellini beans (or white kidney beans), drained and rinsed
• 1 (26 oz.) container chicken stock
• 1 jar (25 oz.) spaghetti sauce
• 2 tsp. dried oregano
• 2 teaspoons dried parsley
• 1 teaspoon ground black pepper
• 2 cups cooked ditalini pasta (or your favorite small pasta shape)
• Salt, to taste 

Instructions:

• I wasn't kidding. Dump it all (except beef and pasta) into a crockpot and add the beef last. 
• Cook on low for 6-8 hours or on high for 4-5 hours.
• When there's about half an hour left, start cooking the pasta separately :) Add it in right before serving.
