I happened to enter the search for "Olive Garden Todd" and found this one - it should be Todd Wilbur.

I don't care for Olive Garden's Pasta Fagioli Soup. Every time we eat at Villa Maninos I get a bowl of their pasta fagioli. It isn't overpowering with spices. I can see bits of tomatoes, celery, cannelli beans, and a mini pasta tube. I'm wondering what they might use as a base, water, or chicken stock. Anyway ladies, I'm going to check out your suggestions, and Joanie2 I await your recipe.

Here's a Rachael Ray recipe for Pasta Fagioli. The reviewers give it a high rating. http://www.foodnetwork.com/recipes/r...ipe/index.html
