-
In a large pot or Dutch oven, brown the ground beef over medium-high heat, breaking it apart with a spoon until fully cooked.

Add the diced onion, chopped carrots, and celery to the pot with the beef. Sauté for 5-7 minutes until the vegetables begin to soften.
-
Stir in the minced garlic and cook for 1 minute until fragrant.
-
Pour in the diced tomatoes, tomato sauce, V-8 juice, white vinegar, salt, pepper, oregano, basil, and thyme. Stir to combine.
-
Add the undrained kidney beans and Great Northern beans to the pot.
-
Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce heat to low and simmer for 15 minutes to allow flavors to meld.
-
Add the ditali pasta to the simmering soup. Cook according to package directions until al dente, stirring occasionally to prevent sticking.
-
Remove from heat and let stand for 5 minutes to allow the pasta to finish absorbing the liquid. Serve hot.
