   Amount  Measure       Ingredient -- Preparation Method
 --------  ------------  --------------------------------
   16      ounces        ditalini -- uncooked
   28      ounces        crushed tomatoes -- large can
   30      ounces        cannellini beans -- 2 15 oz cans
   15      ounces        butter beans -- 1 can
   15      ounces        garbanzo beans, canned -- 1 can
      1/4  cup           parsley
      1/2  teaspoon      ground black pepper
    2      cloves        garlic -- finely chopped
    1      medium        onion
 
 Cook macaroni, al dente (it will cook further in soup), drain, reserve water.
 In heavy guage sauce pot or Dutch oven, cook onion and garlic until
 transparent in olive oil.  Add tomatoes, beans, parsley and pepper.  Bring to
 a boil over medium heat.  Lower heat, add macaroni, simmer and stir frequently
 for about 20 minutes.  Use reserved macaroni water, if necessary, to prevent
 sticking if too thick.  Serve with grated Parmesan or Romano cheese.
 Sometimes I like mine with shredded cheddar.
