Broccoli Rabe and White-Bean Soup image

Vegetables are the secret to making this soup sing -- sauteed garlic, onions, and mushrooms create a savory base, and broccoli rabe and parsley add verve. This recipe is from Lya Christie of Franklin, New York.

Time 50m

Number Of Ingredients 9

2 tablespoons olive oil
2 medium onions, chopped
4 garlic cloves, minced
Coarse salt and ground pepper
8 ounces cremini mushrooms, trimmed and thinly sliced
1 bunch broccoli rabe (about 1 pound), trimmed and coarsely chopped
2 cans (14.5 ounces each) reduced-sodium chicken broth
2 cans (15 ounces each) cannellini beans, rinsed and drained
1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley

Steps:

  • In a large Dutch oven or pot, heat oil over medium. Add onions and garlic; season with salt and pepper. Cook, stirring frequently, until onions have softened, 8 to 10 minutes. Add mushrooms; cook, stirring occasionally, until mushrooms begin to release their liquid, 2 to 4 minutes. Add broccoli rabe; cook until wilted, 2 to 3 minutes.
  • Add broth and 2 cups water; season with salt and pepper. Bring to a boil, and reduce heat to medium-low. Cook, stirring occasionally, until broccoli rabe is tender, 10 to 15 minutes. Add beans and parsley; simmer until warmed through, about 5 minutes.

I'm not a big fan of broccoli rabe, but I really liked this soup. The white beans and the broth were very flavorful. I also liked the addition of the red pepper flakes. It gave the soup a nice kick.

This soup is a great way to use up leftover broccoli rabe. It's also a very affordable meal. I was able to make a big pot of soup for less than $10.

I really enjoyed this soup. It was flavorful and filling. I especially liked the addition of the Parmesan cheese. It really took the soup to the next level.

This soup was a disappointment. The broccoli rabe was tough and the white beans were mushy. The broth was also very bland. I ended up throwing most of it away.

This is my new favorite soup! It's so easy to make and it's absolutely delicious. I love the combination of the broccoli rabe and the white beans. I also really like the addition of the lemon zest. It really brightens up the flavor.

Not bad. I thought the soup was a bit too thick for my taste. I also found the flavor to be a bit one-dimensional. I think it could have used some more herbs or spices.

Meh. The soup was okay, but nothing special. I found the broccoli rabe to be a bit too bitter for my taste. I also thought the soup was a bit bland. I added some extra salt and pepper, but it didn't help much.

Easy to make and packed with flavor. I used canned white beans for convenience and it turned out great. The broccoli rabe was a nice change from the usual greens in soup. Will definitely make again!

This soup is a fantastic blend of flavors and textures. The broccoli rabe brings a slight bitterness that pairs perfectly with the creamy white beans and the savory broth. I added a bit of extra garlic and red pepper flakes for a little kick. Definit
