Easy Pasta Fagioli With Sausage image

This is a delicious and easy Pasta Fagioli recipe that is absolutely delicious! Everyone I make it for Loves it! Learned this recipe from my ex boyfriends mom and it is one of my favorite Fall and Winter comfort meals. If you want a quick easy meal for the family this is it. It makes a lot and is delicous as leftovers and also freezes well! I like it more soupy so i cook it for just a short time..but if you would like it thicker just cook it longer. Serve with your favorite bread and you have a wonderful meal.
