I have made this recipe several times and it is very good and very close to what you get at the Olive Garden. I cooked it in the pressure cooker this time, but have also cooked it on top of the stove. It makes a LOT!

Olive Garden's Pasta E Fagioli Preparation
Brown the ground beef in a large saucepan or pot over medium heat. Drain off most of the fat. Add onion, carrot, celery and garlic; saut for 10 minutes. Add remaining ingredients (except pasta), and simmer for 1 hour.
About 50 minutes into simmer time, cook the pasta in 1 1/2 to 2 quarts of boiling water over high heat. Cook for 10 minutes or just until pasta is al dente, or slightly tough. Drain.
Add the pasta to the large pot of soup. Simmer for 5 to 10 minutes and serve.
This recipe yields 8 servings.

Added 1/2 or a cup of chicken stock to it because it was thick. Also I used chicken instead of beef. It was yummy.

My wife came home from work and said, 'So and so at work had Pasta Fagioli from Olive Garden today and it tasted so good, I wish you would try to make it for dinner.' I found this on BigOven, made minimal changes and she loved it.
I used Italian sausage instead of beef and a slightly different seasoning mix.

I make this all the time and it is a hit every time...the only I do different is: I do not put the pasta in, i put the pasta in the bowl and ladle the soup over it...otherwise my pasta swells...This is a keeper in my house.
