Yield Makes 8 first-course servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

3 tablespoons olive oil
3 cups chopped onions (about 2 medium)
3 garlic cloves, minced
1 tablespoon chopped fresh rosemary
5 cups low-salt chicken broth
2 15- to 16-ounce cans white beans, drained
2 15- to 16-ounce cans garbanzo beans (chickpeas), drained
1 6-ounce package baby spinach leaves
1 tablespoon finely chopped fresh sage
Grated Parmesan cheese
Extra-virgin olive oil (optional)

Steps:

  • Heat 3 tablespoons olive oil in large pot over medium-high heat. Add onions and garlic and sauté until onions are golden, about 15 minutes. Add rosemary and stir 1 minute. Add all broth and beans. Bring soup to boil; reduce to medium-low and simmer until flavors blend, about 10 minutes.
  • Working in batches, transfer soup to blender and puree until smooth; return to pot. Mix in spinach and sage; stir until spinach wilts, about 1 minute. Season soup to taste with salt and pepper. Ladle soup into bowls. Sprinkle each with Parmesan cheese and drizzle with extra-virgin olive oil, if desired.

I was disappointed with this soup. The flavor was just okay and the texture was too thick for my liking. I would not recommend this recipe.

This soup was a bit bland for my taste. I added some extra spices and herbs to give it more flavor. Overall, it was a good soup, but I would probably make some modifications next time.

This soup was easy to make and turned out great! I used canned beans to save time, and it still tasted delicious. I also added some diced carrots and celery for extra flavor. Highly recommend!
