Pasta e fagioli by Frank Fariello

Pasta e fagioli, or pasta and beans, which goes by the amusing nickname 'pasta fazool' in Italian-American slang, is one of the most internationally famous dishes in the entire Italian repertoire.

Split Pea Soup with Baby Purple Crusted Baked Potatoes by Kiki Thompson

Sorry it’s been so long since I’ve posted last. Things have been insanely busy around here. We had family in town for a month.

Lentils creamy soup by Gourmandelle LifestyleBlog

I like crème soups very much but my boyfriend absolutely hates them, this is the reason why I rarely make them. This one is delicious.

It looks like a lot of ingredients, but the second half of the ingredients list is optional toppings. I just use whatever I have on hand, cilantro, sour cream, cheese, whatever!
