White Bean and Rosemary Soup

[heart_this] · May 15, 2023 · 1 Comment

White Bean and Rosemary Soup

A quick, easy, light and tasty bean and vegetable soup with lemon and rosemary!

Although I tend to go for hearty soups that are packed with flavour, occasionally I crave something light and tasty and this white bean and rosemary soup hits the spot! The main ingredients in this soup are the white beans and vegetables, including onions, carrots and celery! The seasoning is quite simple with rosemary and lemon juice being the primary ones with tones of thyme and parmesan cheese. It only takes about 30 minutes to make so it’s perfect for busy nights and if you make a large batch, the leftovers make for quick lunches or meals that just need to be quickly reheated!
