  • 1 teaspoon minced garlic

Instructions
  1. In a large dutch oven or heavy-bottomed pot, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add onion, carrots, and celery, and saute until onions are translucent, about 10 minutes. Add garlic and saute 1-2 minutes more, until garlic is fragrant. Add broth and 1½ cans of beans.

  4. Serve topped with a light sprinkle of shredded parmesan cheese.
