Warm, hearty and delicious Vegetarian Pasta e Fagioli, filled with your favorite fall vegetables, butternut squash and swiss chard! You have to try this! #ad

As a kid, I loved watching my mom in the kitchen cooking. Throwing a little salt in, stirring and throwing in more stuff and mixing again. She never used measuring spoons or cups. She just knew. My mother worked full-time and ran a business of her own, but always found the time to cook for us. In the fall and winter, I especially enjoyed the Korean soups my mom would make for us. Nothing says comfort to me more than soup.

    My mom cooked dinner every night after she got home at 6 from her job, and she hated every minute of it. I could tell. After we left home, she said to my dad, “I did the first 25 years. Dinner’s your job now.” So he learned how to cook! He makes a mean bolognese.
    So I never had the childhood soups and comfort meals, but it sounds like your mom had that down! And you definitely do. This looks so good. And much needed, now that temps are dropping!

    I totally need that cast iron cookware! Love that the top doubles as its own piece of kitchenware! I also totally need this soup! Pasta e Fagioli is my husband’s favorite soup, but I dig more vegetarian soups, so this little number is perfect for both of us! Love it Alice! Pinned! Cheers to a fabulous day!!

    I love watching my mom cook and she was also busy running a business, when we were little, but always found time for easy meals like soups or pasta! This looks perfect, I woke up late this morning and I’m ready to have it for lunch 🙂 Pinning!

    I love how you revisited this Italian soup by adding fall veggies like butternut squash and swiss chard to it! Here in Italy pasta e fagioli is a real staple dish during the colder months and it’s always good to find some ways to switch it up a little and make it a little bit different, so thanks for this inspiration, I’ll be trying it out for sure next time I make it.
