Ingredients

  • 2 tbs. + 2 tbs. olive oil
  • 1/2 yellow onion, diced
  • 2 carrots, chopped in 1/2 inch cubes
  • 2 ribs celery, chopped in 1/2 inch slices
  • 30 oz of cannellini beans (2 cans)
  • 5 cups water
  • 4 cloves garlic

  • 2 cups potato or sweet potato, diced (approx. 1 medium sized potato)

Instructions

  1. Heat 2 tbs. of oil in large soup pot over medium heat. Add onions, carrots, and celery. Cook about 5 minutes, until onions are translucent and veggies are bright, than add beans and water. Cook 15 minutes.
  2. Strain out 1 1/2 cups of the beans/carrot/celery mixture (with minimal to no liquid) and set aside. Puree the rest (beans plus liquid) in a blender. Set aside.

Notes

Editor's note: You can easily make this recipe without oil by using water or vegetable broth for sautéing the vegetables in step 1.
