Fagioli-on-Toast

Directions

1. 1.

   1. Sprinkle the bread with 2 tablespoons of the oil. Toast the slices until crusty and golden.

2. 2.

   2. Heat the remaining oil in a large skillet, then add the garlic and sage and stir until the garlic begins to brown, about 1 minute.

3. 3.

   3. Add the tomatoes, beans, salt, and pepper and stir to combine. Cook until the liquid is reduced and the soup is slightly thickened, a few more minutes.

4. 4.

   4. Serve, placing a slice of toast into each soup bowl or generously spooning the beans and broth right over the bread, if the kids will let you.
