Print Recipe

This hearty white bean soup is packed with flavor and is incredibly easy to make. Perfect for a chilly day, it’s a comforting and nutritious meal.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 onion, chopped
  • 2 carrots, chopped
  • 2 celery stalks, chopped
  • 4 cloves garlic, minced
  • 6 cups vegetable broth
  • 1 (15-ounce) can cannellini beans, rinsed and drained
  • 1 teaspoon dried thyme
  • 1/2 teaspoon dried rosemary
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 1 lemon, juiced
  • Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)

Instructions

  1. Heat olive oil in a large pot or Dutch oven over medium heat. Add onion, carrots, and celery and cook until softened, about 5-7 minutes.
  2. Add garlic and cook for another minute until fragrant.
  3. Pour in vegetable broth, add cannellini beans, thyme, and rosemary. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer for 20 minutes.
  4. Using an immersion blender, blend about half of the soup until smooth. Alternatively, you can transfer half of the soup to a regular blender, blend, and then return it to the pot.
  5. Stir in lemon juice, salt, and pepper to taste.
  6. Serve hot, garnished with fresh parsley.

Notes

For a richer flavor, add a Parmesan cheese rind while the soup simmers and remove before serving. You can also add a splash of cream at the end for extra creaminess.
