Time 10h45m

Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 16

½ pound dried great Northern beans, sorted and rinsed
1 onion, chopped
3 tablespoons olive oil
3 cloves garlic, chopped
1 ¼ pounds ground lamb
3 carrots, peeled and diced
3 stalks celery, diced
1 ½ cups canned roma tomatoes, with liquid
¼ cup chopped fresh parsley
1 teaspoon dried thyme
½ teaspoon dried oregano
fresh ground black pepper
salt to taste
6 cups chicken broth
½ pound baby spinach leaves
4 ounces feta cheese, crumbled

Steps:

  • Soak the dried beans in water overnight. After soaking, drain off remaining water, and rinse.
  • In a large stockpot, cook the onion in oil over low heat until just beginning to soften, about 4 minutes. Stir in garlic, and cook for 1 minute. Increase the heat to medium, and add lamb; cook for 3 to 4 minutes. Stir in carrots and celery, and cook for 1 minute. Stir in tomatoes, and season with parsley, thyme, oregano, and with freshly ground pepper and salt to taste. Add beans and broth to the pot. Bring to a boil, boil for 5 minutes, then reduce heat to medium-low. Simmer, covered, for 1/1/2 hours, or until beans are tender.
  • Rinse spinach, and then place in a saucepan. Place over medium heat, and cook until wilted. This will only take a short time, and you will not need to add more liquid to the pan.
  • Top each serving of soup with wilted spinach and crumbled feta cheese.

I'm a big fan of lamb and this soup did not disappoint. The lamb was tender and the soup was very flavorful. I served it with a side of crusty bread and it was a perfect meal.
