Isn't it great when you have all the ingredients for what you're craving? Score! Celery to use up, an onion about to turn, canned tomatoes I need to start using, a tub of "baby" greens to start working on. Idea from here.
Ingredients
- 1 large onion, chopped
- 2-3 carrots, chopped
- 2-3 celery stalks, chopped
- 4-5 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 tsp thyme
- fresh rosemary or 1/2 tsp dried

- 2 jars of white beans or cooked equivalent - if from a can, rinse and drain
- 2-4 cups broth
- salt & pepper
- bay leaf
- a few handfuls of chopped greens
- parmesan
- parsley (optional)
Process
- Heat olive oil, saute onion, carrot, celery for several minutes until softened.
- Add garlic a minute, then add herbs.
- When aromatic, add tomatoes and beans.
- Add broth (less if tomatoes with juice, less if bean liquid included).
- Cook about 20 minutes.
- Stir in the greens and cook a couple of minutes.
- Stir in parmesan.
- Top with parsley if desired.
- Add
