Thrown together with what I had on hand this miserably rainy, perfect for cooking a big pot of soup, Sunday. Good enough to write down...

Time 1h10m

Yield 8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 14

2 (15 ounce) cans cannellini beans, rinsed and drained
1 onion, chopped
3 garlic cloves, minced
2 carrots, chopped
2 stalks celery, chopped
1 medium potato, pealed and cubed 1/2 inch
2 cups cabbage, chopped
2 tablespoons fresh rosemary, chopped
1 teaspoon fresh thyme, chopped
2 tablespoons olive oil
4 pieces bacon, chopped up
1/4 lb smoked pork, cut into small bites
salt and pepper
water

Steps:

  • Heat olive oil in a heavy soup pot and add bacon until it's crisp, not burned. Remove bacon with slotted spoon and set aside.
  • Add onion, carrot and celery to pot and cook over medium heat to soften, not brown about 5 minutes or more. Add garlic, rosemary, thyme, ground pepper and stir for about a minute until garlic is fragrant.
  • Add potato, cabbage, beans and pork, stir and cook for a minute or two and then add water -I add a lot but if you want it to be more stewy than soupy, don't add as much.
  • Turn heat to high and bring to boil, turn down to low and simmer for 15 minutes or until your vegetables are cooked. Take off heat and add salt 1/4 teaspoon at a time, stirring after adding and tasting until it's seasoned.

This soup is a great way to warm up on a cold day. It's also a great way to get your vegetables in.

I'm not a big fan of white beans, but I really enjoyed this soup. The beans were cooked perfectly and the soup was very flavorful.

This soup is a great way to use up leftover pork. I had some leftover pulled pork from a barbecue and it worked perfectly in this soup. The soup was flavorful and satisfying.

I made this soup for my family and they loved it! The only change I made was to add some chopped carrots. The soup was easy to make and the ingredients were affordable.

This soup was delicious! I followed the recipe exactly and it turned out perfectly. The flavors were well-balanced and the soup was hearty and filling. I will definitely be making this soup again.
