Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cups dried white beans (such as cannellini or navy), soaked overnight and drained
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 medium onion, diced
  • 4 cloves garlic, minced
  • 2 stalks celery, diced
  • 2 medium carrots, diced
  • 6 cups vegetable broth or chicken broth
  • 1 tablespoon fresh rosemary, chopped (or 1 teaspoon dried)
  • 1 bay leaf
  • Salt and pepper, to taste
  • 1 cup kale or spinach, chopped (optional)
  • Juice of 1 lemon
  • Fresh rosemary sprigs for garnish

Instructions

  1. Heat the olive oil in a large pot over medium heat.
  2. Add the diced onion and sauté until translucent, about 5 minutes.
  3. Mix in the minced garlic, diced celery, and carrots. Sauté for an additional 5 minutes until soft.
  4. Stir in the soaked and drained white beans and the vegetable broth. Bring to a boil.
  5. Add the chopped rosemary, bay leaf, salt, and pepper. Reduce the heat to low and simmer uncovered for about 60-90 minutes, until beans are tender.
  6. Adjust the consistency by adding more broth or water if the soup is too thick.
  7. Stir in the chopped kale or spinach during the last 10 minutes of cooking.
  8. Remove the bay leaf and stir in the lemon juice. Adjust seasoning if needed.
  9. Serve hot, garnished with fresh rosemary sprigs.

Notes

For a creamier texture, blend a portion of the soup before serving. This soup pairs well with crusty bread.
