Number Of Ingredients 18

8 cloves garlic (for roasting)
1 tablespoon olive oil
1/2 yellow onion, minced
1 teaspoon dried oregano
1/2 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
2 tablespoons tomato paste
1 28-ounce can fire roasted diced tomatoes
2 bay leaves
6 cups chicken broth or vegetable broth
1/2 teaspoon salt
2 14-ounce cans white beans, rinsed and drained
8 ounces campanile pasta
8 ounces ricotta cheese
1/2 cup Parmesan cheese
a squeeze of lemon juice
minced fresh parsley
salt and pepper to taste
fresh basil leaves, torn

Steps:

  • Drizzle the garlic with a tiny bit of olive oil and wrap with foil. Roast for 30 minutes at 400 degrees.
  • Heat olive oil in a large pot over medium heat. Add onions and cook until softened, about 6 minutes. Add oregano, red pepper flakes, and tomato paste and stir well to incorporate. Cook for 3 to 4 minutes.
  • Add diced tomatoes, bay leaves, chicken broth, and salt. Stir to combine. Bring to a boil and then reduce heat and simmer for 30 minutes. Add white beans. Take a few scoops (about one third) of the soup mixture at this point and puree in the blender with the roasted garlic.
  • Add uncooked pasta and simmer on low until pasta is just softened. Taste and adjust (more salt, more red pepper flakes, more basil, etc.)
  • In a small bowl, combine the ricotta, Parmesan, lemon juice, parsley, salt, and pepper.
  • Place a dollop of the ricotta mixture in each soup bowl and ladle the soup over the top. Top with extra Parm and fresh basil. YUM!
