Ingredients

onions2 medium
eachs garlic cloves4
canned tomatoes14.5 oz
beans15.5 oz
rosemary1 sprigs
chicken stock2 quarts
orecchiette pasta1 cup
bell pepper6 servings

Instructions
Step 1
Heat olive oil in a large pot and add your sliced sausage (hint...fresh sausage is easier to slice if it is slightly frozen...stick it in the freezer for an hour or 2 before you're ready to slice).
Step 2
Brown the sausage well on both sides.
Step 3
Add chopped red onion and cook, stirring occasionally for a couple of minutes.
Step 4
Stir in garlic and cook for another minute or so.
Step 5
Pour in the can of tomatoes.
Step 6
Let the mixture cook down for a few minutes, until slightly thickened.
Step 7
Add beans (I use the liquid, too), herbs and stock. Stir well and bring to a simmer.
Step 8
Once soup has simmered for 10 minutes or so, add in the pasta. Cook ~10 minutes more or until pasta is just al dente. Remember, pasta drinks up your liquid, so you may want to have a bit extra stock, or even just water, on hand.
Step 9
Season with black pepper. You probably will not need salt because of your sausage and stock/broth. But taste it just to make sure and add some if you think it needs it.
Step 10
Ladle into serving bowls and crack a little more fresh black pepper on top.
Step 11
Sprinkle with some chopped parsley.
Step 12
Drizzle a bit of balsamic vinegar on and grate some Parmesan over the top.
