"Good intentions are not enough. They've never put an onion in the soup yet."
- Sonya Levien, Screenwriter
Soups that are chunky and full of body are great for a cold weather meal. Filling, warming and so satisfying. The key for this soup is cutting the veggies in a large dice and using larger white beans like the cannellini. Slow simmering softens the beans and veggies and adds to the creamy texture.
