Olive Garden Pasta Fagioli

I love soup. And one of my all time favorties is the pasta fagioli from The Olive Garden! I can't get enough of it! So I searched and perfected a copycat recipe I found online and it is delicious!
 It tastes the exact same and it is so easy!

I found the recipe here

However, this recipe makes too much for us, so for my family I cut it in half and it
still fills my crock pot to the top~

PASTA FAGIOLI ( Olive Garden Recipe)

1 lb ground beef seasoned with onion and garlic salt
Throw into a crock pot and add:
1 bag of shredded carrots
chopped celery ( I do about 4 stalks)
1 can of diced tomatoes (not drained)
16 oz can Red Kindey beans ( well drained)
16 oz can od White Kidney beans ( well drained)
2 cans of Beef Stock
1 Large can of Spaghetti Sauce ( I use Hunts Garlic and Herb)
1 tsp Tabasco Sauce (optional)
4 tsp Parsley
2 tsp Black Pepper
3 tsp Oregano

Cook on low for 7-8 hours or on High for 4-5 hours

I cook my noodles and add them about a half hour before serving it. I use rotini noodle or elbow but I believe Olive Garden uses Ditali noodles!

Enjoy :)
