1 Tablespoon tomato paste

1 teaspoon Italian seasoning or herbs de Provence

Instructies

Heat the olive oil in a large pot over medium-high heat. Add the onion and cook for 3-4 minutes or until softened. Add the garlic and cook another few seconds then toss in chopped the celery, carrot, tomato paste, and seasoning.

Sauté for 3-4 minutes then stir in the beans and cook for about a minute or until fully coated in the sauce then add in the vegetable broth. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for 12-15 minutes.

Using an immersion blender, blend part of the soup to add creaminess. Alternatively, blend about ¼ of the soup in a blender then return to the soup.

Add the chopped kale or spinach to the soup and stir until wilted. (Kale will take a few extra minutes to soften). Lastly, stir in the juice of 1 lemon at the very end.

Serve this delicious soup with some freshly chopped herbs, grated parmesan, and a side of toasted crusty bread.
