Tuscan Soup starts off with delicious spices, right from the beginning. Olive oil, rosemary, and onion flavors start this soup off, then adding delicious carrots, zucchini, and bell peppers. Finally, spinach and broth is added, and the crowning glory of this soup: the beans.
The white beans in this soup are powerhouses of nutrients. They fill you with protein, fiber, and support healthy body weight. They’re last to be added into this soup (if you want them in other recipes, they’re super easy to cook!).
