My grandmother used to make pasta fagioli all the time, and it’s still one of my favorite soups.  I am always so busy trying to make new recipes that sometimes I neglect the classics.  This pasta fagioli recipe from Skinnytaste is a vegetarian version of my grandmother’s, and perhaps a bit more like a soup than a stew, but the flavor was right on.  After a weekend full of blondies and nachos and macaroons, this soup hit the spot!
