Lush & Creamy Pasta e Fagioli with Fennel

One of my all-time favourite comfort meals is pasta e fagioli. It's incredibly warm, hearty, and nourishing—perfect for those cooler days.

Traditional versions of this dish don't call for fennel, but I love the extra depth it adds. It's also a fantastic way to sneak in some extra veggies.

This recipe relies on simple pantry staples, but a few key techniques make all the difference.

During the initial step of cooking the vegetables in olive oil, be patient and let them cook down thoroughly. Don't rush this stage; it truly enriches the soup's flavour.

Citrus, Coconut Olive Oil Loaf with Mascarpone

Here's a delicious bright, and fresh lemon, lime, and coconut loaf cake topped with a smear of creamy mascarpone and lots of zesty lemon and lime zest.

This one is super easy to make and comes together very quickly in one bowl, which is always a win.

You can also serve the cake without the mascarpone topping. Consider serving it plain, dusted with icing sugar, or accompanied by a dollop of fresh cream.

Hope you enjoy this one and please let me know if you make it!  @gatherandfeast #gatherandfeast
