I'm not a big fan of pesto, but I loved this soup. The flavors were well-balanced and the soup was very creamy.

I'm allergic to nuts, so I substituted the pesto with a mixture of olive oil, basil, and Parmesan cheese. It turned out great!

This soup is a bit too thick for my taste. I would add more broth or water next time.

I followed the recipe exactly and the soup turned out bland. I had to add a lot of salt and pepper to make it taste better.

This soup is a great way to use up leftover beans. I always have a can or two of beans in my pantry, so this is a quick and easy meal to make.
