What type of pasta should I use for my pasta fagioli?

Hi, everyone! I'm diving into making pasta fagioli for the first time and wondering, what type of pasta do you recommend? I've seen so many variations!

Should I stick with traditional choices, or is there room for creativity here? Would love to hear what works best for you. Thanks!

For pasta fagioli, you can use a variety of pasta shapes, but small shapes like ditalini, small shells, or elbow macaroni work best. These shapes complement the hearty beans and vegetables in the soup and make each spoonful deliciously comforting.

For pasta fagioli, you can use small pasta shapes like ditalini, small shells, or elbow macaroni. These shapes work well with the hearty soup consistency and help hold the beans and vegetables.

My go-to is small shells or cavatappi. They absorb the flavors so well! Though, any small pasta would do the trick. Enjoy!
