Creamy Broccoli and White Bean Soup
This creamy broccoli and white bean soup is about as easy as it gets. I made this for Mike and I after church one Sunday and I couldn’t believe how quick it was to throw together! Β It only took about 20 minutes, start to finish, and the end result was warm and comforting. Β Plus it’s very healthy, so you feel good about eating it. π This is such a simple soup, and I was pleasantly surprised by how much we liked it – I’m definitely planning to double the recipe next time I make it. If you’re looking for a simple, healthy, and delicious winter meal, this creamy broccoli and white bean soup is for you.
