1 chopped onion
1-2 cloves chopped garlic
1-2 stalks chopped celery
1-2 tablespoons olive oil
1/2 teaspoon thyme (or to taste)
1/2 teaspoon rosemary (or to taste)
1 teaspoon basil
Cook above ingredients in oil until softened ( about 15 minutes). Add four cups of chicken broth and three cans of drained, washed northern beans. Throw in some frozen or chopped fresh spinach. Scoop at least half of the soup into a blender and blend until smooth. Add blended mixture to the initial soup.
