Bean, Pasta & Roasted Pepper Soup

Tender pasta simmers in chicken broth with roasted red peppers, colorful vegetables, cannellini beans and seasonings to make a superb soup in just an hour.

Directions

Heat the oil in a 6-quart saucepot over medium heat.  Add the carrots, celery, onion and garlic and cook until the vegetables are tender, stirring occasionally.

Stir the broth, beans, tomatoes and ditalini in the saucepot and heat to a boil.  Cover and cook for 15 minutes or until the ditalini is tender.  Stir in the peppers, cheese and vinegar and cook until the mixture is hot.  Season to taste.  Serve hot, topped with additional cheese, if desired.
