Wintry Beef 'n' Bean Pasta

SERVES: 4

COOK TIME: 30 Min

When it's cold outside and you want to serve up some stick-to-your-ribs goodness, throw together this comforting combination of meat, beans, and pasta. With a bowl of this and some warm, crusty bread, you'll be all set to curl up by the fire.

What You'll Need

1/4 cup vegetable oil
1 pound ground beef
4 garlic cloves, coarsely chopped
1 (14-1/2 ounce) can diced tomatoes, undrained
1 3/4 cup chicken broth
1 cup water
1/2 teaspoon browning and seasoning sauce
2 (14 to 16 ounces each) cans cannellini beans (white kidney beans), undrained
1/2 cup chopped fresh parsley
4 teaspoons dried oregano
1 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
1/2 pound uncooked elbow pasta
1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese

What to Do

In a 6-quart soup pot, heat oil over medium-high heat. Add ground beef and garlic and brown 4 to 6 minutes, or until no pink remains in beef.
Add tomatoes, broth, water, browning and seasoning sauce, beans, parsley, oregano, and pepper; mix well.
Bring to a boil and add pasta. Cook 10 to 12 minutes, or until pasta is tender. Stir in Parmesan cheese and serve in bowls.

Way too much oregano! Should it be 1/4 teaspoon? That taste overwhelmed the dish, which says a lot considering all the pasta and beans.

Not trying to say too much since we love 99% of the Mr. Food recipes .... had to throw away all the leftovers which was easily 4+ servings wasted. The basic pasta fagioli w/beef/cheese was fine, but all the seasonings were way off.

Will certainly give this a try this winter. As always, I do think this is more servings than listed (at least 6), but I still love the variety in your recipes can adjust the recipes to suit our needs.
