Preparation
Step 1
Heat the olive oil and bacon in a 3-quart saucepan over medium-high heat. Cook, stirring frequently, until the bacon is browned and crisp, about 4 minutes. Using a slotted spoon, transfer the bacon to a paper-towel-lined plate.
Add the onion, garlic, and 1/4 tsp. each salt and pepper to the saucepan and cook over medium heat, stirring frequently, until the onion is soft, about 5 minutes. Add the collards and thyme and cook, stirring, until the collards are wilted, about 3 minutes. Remove the garlic and discard.
Add the broth, turn the heat up to high, cover, and bring to a boil. Add the pasta and cook until just tender, about 2 minutes. Add the beans and cook, stirring frequently, until heated through, about 1 minute. Stir in half of the Parmigiano shavings.
Serve the soup topped with the remaining Parmigiano and the bacon.
