1
Prep vegetables and beans
Knife
Cutting Board

Dice the carrots, mince the garlic, and drain and rinse the cannellini beans before starting.

Keep the knife blade angled away from fingers while dicing the carrots and mincing the garlic.

2 Count carrot
2 Count garlic
1 can cannellini beans
2
Soften the carrots
Wooden spoon
Large pot with lid

Cook the carrots in olive oil over medium heat for about 3 minutes, until beginning to soften. Use a pot of at least 5 quarts and stir often.

1 tablespoon olive oil
2 Count carrot
3
Bloom the seasonings
Measuring Spoons
Wooden spoon
Large pot with lid

Add the garlic, Italian seasoning, salt, and black pepper, then stir for 30 seconds until the garlic smells gentle and fragrant.

2 Count garlic
1 teaspoon italian seasoning
1 teaspoon Salt
1/4 teaspoon Black Pepper
4
Add pasta, beans, and liquid
Measuring Cups
Wooden spoon
Large pot with lid

Stir in the crushed tomatoes, water, elbow macaroni, and cannellini beans, making sure the pasta is mostly covered with liquid and the bottom of the pot is scraped clean.

1 can tomatoes
3 cups Water
12 ounces elbow macaroni
1 can cannellini beans
5
Simmer the pasta
Wooden spoon
Large pot with lid

Bring to a gentle boil, then reduce the heat to medium-low, cover, and cook for 10 to 12 minutes, stirring often, until the pasta is almost tender.

Use oven mitts when handling the hot pot lid.

Keep the pot at a gentle simmer to reduce sticking and boiling over.

6
Finish with peas
Wooden spoon
Large pot with lid

Add the peas, return to a gentle simmer and cook until the pasta is tender and the peas meet their package cooking requirements. Stir often and complete the full package stovetop time; check for 165°F if specified by the package.

Stir carefully to prevent hot tomato sauce from splattering.

1 cup peas
7
Rest and serve
Large pot with lid

Remove from the heat and let the pasta rest for 2 minutes so the sauce can settle and thicken before serving.

Let the pasta cool slightly before serving to children.
