This recipe is from a long-defunct and short-lived 1980's magazine, "New Woman." It's a delicious and easy soup, and although the recipe doesn't call for it, I like to add cabbage and to spice it up with some crushed red pepper.

SERVES 2 (change servings and units)

Ingredients

1 tablespoon olive oil
1 medium onion, sliced
1 medium carrot, cut in 1/4-inch rounds
2 garlic cloves, diced
1/2 teaspoon dried basil
3 ounces ham, diced
1/2 cup canned tomato
3 cups chicken broth
1 cup red kidney beans, drained
1/2 cup macaroni
salt
pepper
parmesan cheese, grated

Directions

1
Heat olive oil in medium saucepan. Cook carrot and onion in hot oil, 5-7 minutes.
2
Add garlic, basil and ham and cook an additional 2 minutes.
3
Add tomatoes and if using whole tomatoes, crush. Add broth & beans. Mash some of the beans with potato masher. Simmer 20 minutes.
4
Add pasta, and cook until done per package directions.
5
Serve with Parmesan cheese.
