Ingredients

4 cups Water
5 15 oz can Tomato Sauce
2 15 oz cans Petite Diced Tomatoes
1 15 oz can White Beans Drained
1 15 oz can Kidney Beans Drained
3 each Celery Stalks Chopped
1 lb. Bacon Diced and Cooked
2 cups Carrots Chopped
1 cup Ditalini Pasta Uncooked
2 tsp. Garlic Powder
2 tsp. Onion Powder
1 tsp. Black Pepper
1 tsp. Salt
1 tsp. Thyme
3 each Bay Leaves

Instructions

Place all ingredients, except bacon and pasta, into a slow Cooker.
Cook on high for 3-4 hours, until steaming.
Add pasta.
Cook for 1 hour.
Add bacon.
Serve warm.

Notes

Use chicken broth instead of water for added flavor.
The pasta takes in more liquid and expands the more it is in the soup. An option is to cook the pasta separate from the soup and then add it at the end with the bacon.

Steps

Place all ingredients, except bacon and pasta, into slow cooker.

After 3-4 hours, add pasta. Cook until pasta is soft, about 1 hour.

Cook bacon and add to soup.

Serve warm.
