White Bean and Parmesan Soup with Pesto image

This soup is an all time family favorite-light, fresh tasting yet filling. Since I'm a garlic freak I like to serve this with a Caesar Salad and hot rolls.

This soup is a little bland for my taste. I added some extra spices and it was much better.

This is a great soup to make ahead of time. It reheats well and it's even better the next day.
