Instructions

1Heat the olive oil in a large pot or Dutch oven over medium heat. Add the diced onion, carrots, and celery. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the vegetables are softened, about 8-10 minutes.
2Add the minced garlic and dried oregano to the pot. Cook for another 1 minute until fragrant.
3Stir in the crushed tomatoes, rinsed cannellini beans, and chicken or vegetable broth. Bring the mixture to a simmer.
4Once simmering, reduce the heat to low, cover the pot, and let it cook for 20 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.
5Increase the heat to medium-high and bring the soup back to a boil. Add the ditalini pasta and cook according to package directions, typically 8-10 minutes, or until the pasta is al dente. If the soup becomes too thick, add a little more broth or water.
6Season the soup with salt and black pepper to taste.
7Ladle the Pasta e Fagioli into bowls. Garnish with fresh chopped parsley and a sprinkle of grated Parmesan cheese, if desired, before serving.
