Ingredients:

- 1 yellow onion
- 8 cloves garlic
- 15 oz can diced tomatoes, drained (*Substitute canned tomatoes for 3 fresh tomatoes, diced)
- 3 tablespoons chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley
- 4 (15 ounce) cans white beans (cannellini beans), drained and rinsed
- 3/4 cup fresh grated Parmesan cheese (for serving)
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 6 cups broth (vegetable or chicken)
- 1 teaspoon sugar
- 1 tablespoon Italian dried herbs
- 1 teaspoon kosher salt (plus more, to taste)
- ½ teaspoon black pepper (plus more, to taste)
- 4 cups baby spinach (about 6 ounces)
- Crusty Italian or French bread and butter, for serving





Instructions:

Prep:
--
1. Get your veggies ready. Chop the onion. Smash, peel, and mince the garlic cloves. If using fresh tomatoes, chop them now. Chop the parsley and set aside.

2. Get the rest of your ingredients ready. Drain canned tomatoes and drain & rinse the beans. Grate your parmesan cheese and set aside.

To Cook:
--
1. In a large pot or saucepan, heat olive over medium high heat. Add onion and garlic; cook until onions are translucent and garlic is fragrant (about 2-3 minutes), while stirring occasionally. Add in the broth, tomatoes, sugar, Italian herbs, salt and pepper.

2. Bring to a boil, reduce heat and simmer for 5 minutes to combine all of the flavours together.

3. Stir in the beans and spinach. Continue to simmer gently until the spinach has wilted, (about 2 minutes).

4. Take off heat. Stir through the parmesan cheese. Taste test, adjust salt and pepper if needed.

5. Divide between 6 bowls and/or meal prep containers. For any servings you will be eating later in the week, let cool completely and store, covered, in the refrigerator. To freeze, let cool completely and freeze each serving in plastic or silicone tupperware. Once frozen, you can pop out the frozen block of soup, store in an airtight zip-top bag, and that way you don't have to let your tupperware sit in the freezer.

6. Serve each bowl of soup with a slice of crusty delicious bread (around 2 oz) and a teaspoon of good butter. Enjoy!
