Follow The Directions

01

Step

Prepare the Vegetables: In a food processor, combine the baby spinach and chopped carrot. Pulse until finely chopped, creating a vibrant base for the soup. (5 minutes)

02

Step

Sauté Aromatics: Heat the olive oil in a large pot or Dutch oven over medium heat. Add the finely chopped shallot and minced garlic. Cook, stirring frequently, until fragrant and softened, about 2-3 minutes. Be careful not to brown the garlic. (3 minutes)

03

Step

Build the Soup: Stir in the spinach and carrot mixture, chicken stock (or vegetable stock), drained cannellini beans, dried oregano, dried thyme, salt, and pepper. Bring the mixture to a gentle boil, stirring occasionally. (5 minutes)

04

Step

Simmer for Flavor: Reduce the heat to low, cover the pot, and let the soup simmer gently for about 20 minutes, stirring occasionally, allowing the flavors to meld and deepen. (20 minutes)

05

Step

Finish and Puree: Remove the soup from the heat and stir in the fresh lemon juice. Using an immersion blender, carefully puree the soup until smooth and creamy. Alternatively, you can transfer the soup in batches to a regular blender, being cautious when blending hot liquids. (5 minutes)

For an even richer flavor, consider using homemade chicken or vegetable stock.
A swirl of high-quality olive oil or a dollop of Greek yogurt makes a lovely garnish.
Feel free to add other vegetables like celery or zucchini to the soup for added nutrition and flavor.
This soup freezes beautifully, making it a great option for meal prepping.
Adjust the amount of salt and pepper to your liking.

    The lemon juice really brightens up the flavor of the soup. I'll definitely be making this again!

    I didn't have any shallots on hand, so I used a small onion instead, and it worked out great.

  • Isabell Lemke

    This soup is so easy to make and tastes amazing! I added a pinch of red pepper flakes for a little heat.
