Taste of HomeThis recipe is best made a week in advance—they really reach perfection at 10 days. Double or triple this zippy recipe...you won't regret it!—Dean Schrock, Jacksonville, FloridaYummlyAlso known as "pasta e fasul," as Dean Martin sings in the goofy ‘50s classic “That’s Amore,” this stick-to-your-ribs Italian soup of vegetables, tomatoes, cannellini beans, and small pasta comes together in a snap, but tastes like it simmered for hours. A whole sprig of fresh rosemary, removed at the end as you would a bay leaf, infuses the soup with a hint of herby flavor without overwhelming the broth. Though cannellini beans, sometimes labeled “white kidney beans,” are more authentic, if they’re not available you can substitute smaller great northern beans. Finish the soup with fresh basil and salty Pecorino Romano cheese. The recipe, which makes 7 cups, is a Yummly original created by [Ivy Manning](https://www.yummly.com/dish/author/Ivy-Manning).Food.comI found this recipe on Jimmy Dean's website, and it's a different variation on your traditional potato salad. I was hesitant to make a potato salad without mayonnaise and just mustard, but it's quite good. I used Jimmy Dean's all-natural spicy sausage because I didn't have the sage sausage, and I added sage to the dressing. I also used basil, oregano, marjoram, and thyme but maybe I'm a little excessive. I didn't have red bell peppers, but I did put in yellow and green. I used 2 kinds of potatoes (red and yukon) and a spicy brown mustard because I didn't have whole grain mustard. My bell peppers and parsley were frozen, so I tossed it in with the potato mixture toward the end of cooking. Very fun!
