One of my goals for 2014 was to learn how to make homemade soups. I chose a few I’d like to learn in an previous post. Yesterday I made a recipe (that wasn’t even on my list) that I found on Pinterest.
My husband and I enjoy going out to eat. We like simple, casual food ~ homey, comfort food, nothing too fancy or gourmet. Olive Garden is one of our favorite places to go.
I was looking for crockpot recipes on Pinterest when I found this one. I made a couple of changes, but only because I didn’t have a couple of the ingredients on hand. I used Italian Seasoning in place of the basil and thyme, and I skipped the apple juice entirely. I also chose to slice the carrots instead of shred them. Otherwise, I pretty much followed the recipe step by step. You can find the original recipe here.

Healthy beans are one of the ingredients in my homemade soup recipe.
We had this for dinner last night … I served it with warm from the oven pumpernickel dinner rolls. YUM !
My first time making Pasta E Fagioli soup using a copycat recipe from Olive Garden
This recipe makes a big pot of homemade soup … both my husband and I give it a big thumbs up – you should give it a try 🙂
