Method

  • In a large stock pan over medium-high heat, add the olive oil and the onion. Allow the onion to cook until it is tender (about 3 minutes).
  • Add the tomato (or marinara sauce) and garlic and incorporate it into the mixture. Cook for just 1-2 minutes (be careful not to burn the garlic).
  • Add the vegetable stock, water, salt, pepper and red pepper flakes. Bring this to a boil and then add your pasta. Lower the heat and allow the pasta to cook until its about 3/4 of the way finished (still slightly firm).
  • Add your beans and allow the mixture to continue cooking until the pasta is fully cooked (about 10-15 minutes).
  • Add the parsley toward the end of your cooking time. Taste and adjust the seasoning as needed.
  • Serve in individual bowls with extra parsley as garnish and sprinkle with the Parmesan cheese.
