BEAN AND MACARONI SOUP
This cholesterol-free tasty dish is virtually fat free and is prepared with only 1 tbsp. of oil. You can eat the whole pot. I have a trick after reading the reviews about the pasta soaking up the liquid. Cook the pasta seperate and drain put in a bowl next to the soup for serving. Put 2 or three good size spoonfuls in bottom of bowl then ladle the soup over it. Thats how i do it with pasta and rice soups.

Steps:
- In a food processor, add chopped carrots, celery, garlic and onion and process until minced.
- In a large pot, add 2T olive oil, and the minced carrot mixture. Saute 3-5 minutes until softened. Add ground beef and cook though. Add beans, tomatoes, bullion, water and italian seasoning. Simmer over medium-low heat 1-2 hours.
- Cook and strain, and rinse elbow macaroni. Add to pot, adding a bit more water if necessary. I like mine with less broth. Heat through. Serve with grated cheese and a chunk of crusty rustic italian bread.

PASTA AND BEAN SOUP
The chef Tom Valenti channels his late grandmother in his cooking, utilizing her ''stove top approach to life'' by braising and stewing and slow cooking the kinds of food that snowstorms were made for. Her pasta and bean soup, a treat for carb-lovers with its addition of mashed potatoes to thicken the broth, was one of many old-country comfort foods that she fed Mr. Valenti during his childhood.

Steps:
- Heat olive oil in a large heavy-bottomed pot over medium heat. Add prosciutto and cook, stirring, until prosciutto begins to render its fat, about 4 minutes.
- Add carrot, onion, celery and garlic. Season with salt and pepper, and cook, stirring, until softened but not browned, about 5 minutes. Add tomato paste, stir to coat other ingredients, and cook for 2 minutes. Add broth, one quart water and potatoes. Raise heat to high and bring to a boil, then lower heat and simmer until potatoes are very soft, about 25 minutes. Transfer potatoes to a bowl and mash them.
- Return potatoes to pot and stir them into soup. If not serving immediately, let cool, cover and refrigerate for a few days or freeze for up to 1 month. Reheat before proceeding.
- Add beans and pasta. Cook over medium heat until beans are warmed through, about 5 minutes. Stir in rosemary, crushed red pepper and cheese. Taste and adjust seasoning with salt and pepper, if necessary.
- To serve, ladle some soup into each of 8 bowls. Top with more cheese and a drizzle of extra virgin olive oil.

ITALIAN SAUSAGE, BEAN AND MACARONI SOUP
A family favorite for many years. This soup is even better if made a day ahead to blend flavors, just rewarm on top of the stove, and serve with crusty buns. You can add in precooked pasta, any kind you desire to the soup, in place of small uncooked pasta. You can use turkey sausage in place of the Italian sausage.
