Pasta e Fagioli; Sauteed Zucchini with Balsamico; Oven Roasted Green Beans

Pasta e Fagioli, pronounced in Italian American communities as "pasta fazool," is one of those simple, easy to make comfort foods perfect for a weeknight dinner when you have just returned home with a loaf of fresh bread. I like mine to be soupy. Drizzle with olive oil just before serving.
