This Crockpot vegetarian pasta e fa*gioli soup recipe is a hearty and flavorful meatless meal that is easy to throw together so you have a hot meal ready with minimal effort!
If you’re wondering what “pasta e fa*gioli” means… it’s simple. Pasta and beans! This soup is a classic Italian dish that’s well loved by many. It often contains pancetta, but I omitted it to make this dish veg-friendly.
This easy pasta e fa*gioli soup tastes so good because the slow cooking perfectly melds all the flavors together. There really is a great depth of flavor in this soup, and we have no fancy ingredients here.
How to make vegetarianpasta e fa*gioli in a slow cooker
Chop your carrots, celery, and onions. I chopped mine pretty roughly… we don’t need to be perfect for a rustic soup like this.
Add all ingredients except for the pasta to a Crockpot and cook on low heat for 6-8 hours.
About 30 minutes prior to serving, add the pasta in. I suggest giving it a stir every 10 minutes or so to prevent it from sticking to the bottom of the slow cooker.
I used ditali pasta in this pasta e fa*gioli recipe. It’s basically a larger version of ditalini pasta. Either is fine… whatever you can find will work. Even macaroni would work just fine in this recipe. Why was ditali pasta easier for me to find that ditalini? We’ll probably never know. 😛
Pro tip: As with any soups that contain pasta, in my opinion, this healthy pasta e fa*gioli soup is best enjoyed right after you make it. The pasta will soak up some of the liquid the longer you leave it. Not a big deal, but I wanted to mention it. You can always add more vegetable broth to add more liquid back in the leftovers if needed.

This recipe is the perfect set it and forget it recipe to put on this weekend before you go Christmas shopping. 😉 How is your shopping going, by the way? I still have some gifts left to buy, but I’m not doing too bad compared to many, I guess.
I hate crowds, but I’ve also had online shopping issues lately, so I think I just need to suck it up and pick one or the other and get it over with already. *rolls eyes*

Anyway, I hope you love this vegetarian pasta fa*gioli recipe!
