white beans

🥗Healthier: cannellini beans

💰Cheaper: navy beans

Navy beans are often less expensive and still provide a creamy texture.

Parmesan cheese

🥗Healthier: nutritional yeast

💰Cheaper: grated Pecorino

Nutritional yeast adds a cheesy flavor with fewer calories.

Soak the fagioli con l'occhio overnight or for several hours.

In a pot, combine the soaked fagioli, chopped pomodorini, chopped sedano, minced aglio, and the bay leaf.

Add enough water to cover the ingredients by about 2 cm.

Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat to low and simmer for 2.5 to 3 hours.
