Servings: 6

 

Ingredients:

12 thin asparagus spears, stems removed and cut into thirds

2 (15 ounce) cans of cannellini beans, drained and rinsed

1 (28 ounce) can of diced tomatoes

3 carrots, peeled and sliced

8 ounces of uncooked ditalini pasta

3 garlic cloves, minced

1 cup of frozen sweet peas

1/3 cup freshly grated romano cheese + more for topping

salt and pepper to taste

1 (6 ounce) bag of fresh spinach

1 sweet onion, diced

3 cups low-sodium vegetable stock

3 cups water

Equipment:

slow cooker

Cooking instruction summary:

Add diced onions, garlic, carrots, the whole can of diced tomatoes, cannellini beans, stock and water to your crockpot. Cook on low for 4-6 hours, stirring once or twice if you can. About 10-15 minutes before serving, add in asparagus (I like mine with some crunch, add it earlier if you want it softer), spinach, peas and pasta. Cook on low for another 10-15 minutes then stir in grated cheese. Taste and season with salt and pepper as desired. I used about a 1/2 teaspoon of each, but it will depend on the sodium levels in your stock, tomatoes, etc. Serve immediately with additional cheese on top!
