5 cn Chicken Broth, (14 oz.)

3 Thyme, generous pinch

2 md Onions, finely chopped

Cple shakes poultry

4 md New potatoes, diced

1 cn Tomato Sauce, (8 oz.)

8 oz Ditalini (#40)

Cple shakes oregano, dried

2 cn Red Kidney beans, (14 oz.)

1/4 ts Sage, ground

5 Parsley, chopped

Cple shakes garlic powder

4 Stalks celery, cut in 1/2"


Directions

*Note: For heightened flavor, I like to place the meat bones on a roasting rack in the oven for about 1 hour at 400 degrees. Ditalini #40 is small 1/2" long tube macaroni. Barley or another type of pasta may be substituted for this. Add all ingredients to the chicken stock in an 8-Qt. soup kettle. Turn heat to high and bring the mixture to a boil to reduce the liquid, then reduce to a simmer for about 1 hour. Add the Ditalini during the last 15 minutes so theyre not overcooked. Serve with a loaf of crusty Italian bread. Recipe by: F. Cavalier - January, 1996 Posted to EAT-L Digest 01 Mar 97 by Frank Cavalier <fcaval@IDT.NET> on Mar 2, 1997.
