Directions
- Put a large stockpot over a medium-high flame and heat the oil.
- Add the sausage to the pot and cook until evenly browned, about 7 minutes.
- Add in the onion, garlic, celery and bay leaves. Cook while stirring occasionally with a wooden spoon until the vegetables begin to soften, about 5-7 minutes.
- Add the broth to the pot, taking care to scrape up any brown bits stuck to the bottom with your wooden spoon. Stir in the tomatoes and beans.
- Bring to a boil and add the pasta. Cook until the pasta is 1-2 minutes shy of al dente (the pasta will continue to cook slightly in the soup so you don’t want to cook it too long)
- Ladle into bowls and serve with crusty Italian bread and a generous sprinkle of grated cheese.
