Preparation

  1. Step 1

    Bring a large pot of salted water to boil for the pasta. Meanwhile, warm the olive oil over medium heat. Add the garlic, onion and escarole, and cook, stirring frequently, for 5 to 10 minutes until escarole is wilted. Add the beans and rosemary and saute for one minute. Add the chicken broth, salt and pepper and simmer for 5 minutes. Taste, adjust the seasoning with additional salt and pepper, cover and set aside.

  2. Step 2

    Boil fusilli until tender and drain. Toss the pasta with the warm beans. Add parsley and divide among 4 pasta bowls, garnishing each with Parmesan.

Simple soup with terrific flavor. Will make again.

Used 1.5 chopped yellow onions Used two cans of white beans (small white beans), partially puree one can with broth. Added 6 cups of broth: 4 cups chicken broth plus 2 cups vegetable broth Used ~ 2tsp minced rosemary Delicious and easy!

Used "Italian Seasoning" instead of rosemary because that's what was on hand. Doubled (2cans beans, 1can broth) and omitted onion because I was lazy. Great for last-minute lunch!
