:Looks great!! I'm considering doing this recipe without the pasta. Just leave in the Quinoa. It's not Pasta Fagioli, maybe Quinoa Fagioli but it probably will taste almost as good.
I grew up having Pasta Fajole every Friday night (back in the day when Catholics fasted form meat on Fridays). I felt no sacrifice at all...I still crave it and have a pot cooking now. I do use dry beans because we love the garlicky white beans sauce it makes, But if you have to use canned...try putting one can full in th blender and leaving one whole. Its better that way. Also, try a bit of crushed red pepper on it. Nice job Mike.
No problem Mike, it was just really good to see someone who GETS what the dish is all about. So many times I've seen the integrity of the dish ruined. It's peasant food, it's simple food...it's smart food cuz the protien is from the beans...but I've seen it made so heavy and complicated with meats and rich sauces that you would not recognize it. Your's is just right.
actually, the parmesan i use is made with skim milk (trader joe;s) and has zero cholesterol. and the quinoa i use (also from trader joe's) has zero sat fat...but thanks for the comment. most parm cheeses do have some cholesterol...peace...
Looks delicious. The addition of quinoa is a good idea. Can you add basil or escarole?

actually, the parmesan has some cholesterol, and the quinoa does have a small amount of saturated fat. fyi.
