EXPERT TIPS

Expert Tips

Fagioli is the Italian word for "beans". It refers to white kidney beans, which are also called cannellini beans.

Red kidney beans or great northern beans can be used in place of the cannellini beans.

All beans of this type are excellent sources of fiber and protein.

A crisp salad of shredded greens tossed with Italian dressing goes well with this hearty pasta. Grissini (long and thin crisp Italian breadsticks) and melon wedges complete the meal.

Good recipe. I used fresh roma tomatoes and tube tomato paste for freshness and richness. Fresh romano asiago cheese grated on top, yum.Use the short noodles for a better mouth feel. I'm thinking spaghetti sauce will work and also left overs zuged up with chili powder and red kidney beans will be a good chili dish.

This recipe is good but I will make some changes next time I make it. Using the can of diced tomatoes does not produce a sauce like shown in the picture. I will use spaghetti sauce to actually have a SAUCE! I also added sausage on top.
