- 🧄 2 cloves garlic, pressed
- 1 ½ cups frozen cut green beans
- 1 cup frozen peas
- 2 large zucchini, chopped
- ½ cup minced fresh parsley
Liquid
- 10 cups vegetable broth

STEPS
Heat 2 tablespoons olive oil in a heavy-bottomed pot over medium-high heat; cook and stir onion and garlic until onion is translucent, about 10 minutes. Add green beans, peas, and zucchini; toss to coat vegetables with oil.
Slowly stream vegetable broth into vegetable mixture; bring to a simmer over medium heat. Stir in rosemary and great Northern beans and bring back to a simmer, about 5 minutes. Add ditalini pasta and simmer soup until pasta is tender but firm to the bite and soup has thickened, 10 to 15 minutes. Remove from heat; stir in parsley.
Ladle soup into serving bowls and top each serving with 1 heaping tablespoon Parmesan cheese; season with salt and black pepper. Garnish soup with a drizzle of extra-virgin olive oil.

💡 To add depth of flavor, you may brown pancetta or bacon in the olive oil before starting the recipe.Ditalini pasta can be substituted with small-shell pasta if unavailable.Using vegetable bouillon instead of broth may result in a richer taste.For a vegan version, skip the Parmesan cheese or use a vegan substitute.
