Tuscan White Bean Soup

Hearty and delicious, cheap and easy, this vegan Tuscan White Bean Soup features nutrient-dense kale, some pantry-staples, fresh herbs and a splash of lemon juice to brighten the flavor. The recipe is vegan, but carnivores definitely won’t want to miss out on this filling soup. It is creamy, flavorful, and tastes like it’s been simmering all day, yet it takes just 20 minutes to cook.

This easy white bean soup has been on regular rotation at our house this autumn because it uses simple ingredients and is a hit with the entire family. Start by sautéing the onions, carrots, and celery until soft and translucent. Stir in the garlic, chili flakes, and rosemary and cook until fragrant. Next, add the beans and vegetable stock and bring to a boil. Once at a boil, ladle half of the soup into a blender. Add the lemon juice and purée the soup until smooth. Add the puréed portion back to the pot and season to taste. Puréeing half the soup and adding it back to the pot is the secret method that elevates the dish to a higher level. The soup tastes creamy, without including any heavy cream. The result is still a brothy soup with distinct beans, veggies and kale, but it’s hearty, creamy, and rich. Finally, add in the kale and bring the soup to a boil. Once the kale is slightly wilted, remove the pot from the heat and stir in the parsley. Adjust the seasonings with salt and pepper, if needed, and serve hot!
