Ingredients:

Serving

2 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
1/2 lb sweet italian sausage , removed from its casings
1 cup coarsely chopped sweet onion , such as vidalia
1 garlic clove, minced
4 celery ribs, coarsely chopped
3 medium carrots, coarsely chopped
1 tbsp chopped fresh rosemary
1/4 cup red wine
1 1/2 tsp salt
1 tsp fresh ground black pepper
1 (14 1/2 oz) can diced tomatoes ( do not drain)
2 (14 1/2 oz) cans beef broth
parmigiano-reggiano cheese
1 (15 1/2 oz) can garbanzo beans, rinsed and drained
1 (15 1/2 oz) can small white beans, rinsed and drained
1 (15 1/2 oz) can red kidney beans, rinsed and drained
1/2 lb elbow macaroni , cooked according to package directions
1/2 cup shredded parmigiano-reggiano cheese

Directions:

Heat the oil in a Dutch oven over moderate heat.
Add in the sausage and cook, breaking it up and browning it, until it loses all its pink color, 10-12 minutes.
Remove all but 2 tablespoons of fat from the pan; add in the onion, garlic, celery, carrots, and rosemary; saute for 4-5 minutes, until the vegetables begin to soften.
Add in the wine, salt, and pepper; boil until the wine is reduced to about 2 tablespoons (this shouldn’t take long).
Add in the tomatoes; bring the mixture to a boil, stirring well.
Pour in the broth and add the cheese rind and beans.
Simmer the mixture, uncovered, for 25 minutes, until it thickens a bit.
Add in the pasta and simmer for another 10 minutes, until the liquid has thickened.
Sprinkle the cheese on top; transfer to a 350° preheated oven and bake for 20 minutes or so, until the sauce is bubbling and the cheese is golden; serve hot in soup bowls.
OAMC: Make as directed through step 8; cool, then cover and refrigerate for up to 2 days or freeze for up to 2 months.
Defrost the casserole in the refrigerator overnight (if frozen); preheat oven to 350°; let casserole come to room temperature for 30-40 minutes.
Sprinkle cheese over the top; bake for 20-25 minutes until the sauce is bubbling and the cheese is golden; serve in soup bowls.
