Pasta e fagioli is a delicious Italian soup that is filling and inexpensive. The name literally means pasta and beans. This is all it takes. A can of tomatoes, pasta, a can of beans or 1 1/2 cups of cooked beans, some chopped onion, mixed, Italian seasoning (oregano, basil, rosemary, marjoram), beef broth (or water and boullion cube), salt and some grated parmesan. There are lots of recipes available online. You can add meat, but it isn't necessary and the original versions didn't. It's inexpensive but doesn't taste cheap. Your family will ask for second helpings.

The information in these videos is very good but why are the videos so inconsistent??? In the potato soup portion, the potatoes are peeled and cut up and the next portion shows the potatoes whole and unpeeled?? And this happens over and over!! WHY??? Come on! This info is too important! Why screw it up with like this??

My mom would have Creamed Tuna on toast when things started to get tight - also the potato soup you mentioned, and sometimes we had baked potato night. But the creamed tuna was my sisters favorite - canned tuna, heated with milk, cheese, maybe some flour, and some frozen peas added - all over toast. It was pretty good!
