Hello World! Welcome Friends! This year one of the things I want to work on is to try more new recipes. Nothing specific, just new! I love reading recipes. I love the pictures they create. The aromas, they way the house feels when I’m working in the kitchen. My little girl close by waiting to taste test. It’s heavenly!
White Bean and Rosemary Soup
The weather in Houston has been crazy cold. We’ve had ice and a wee bit of snow. And, the fireplace has definitely gotten a workout this winter. One of the first recipes I wanted to try was this White Bean and Rosemary Soup.
I found the recipe in a magazine, tore it out and saved it for a rainy day; well at least a cold day. There’s something about bean soups that give you this feeling of warmth and filling without overdoing the sensations.
While Chloe was at the Children’s Museum with a friend, Greg and I took some time to sort through the beans. It was nice to slow down, take a seat and share a moment sorting the beans. Such a simple task, but made lovely because we shared it together. The texture of the beans in our fingers mingled with laughter, because that man makes me laugh. Such a moment. Remembering to slow down and savor life is so important.
The ingredients for this soup are few, but they pack a delicious punch.
The start is simple, olive oil, onion, garlic, and rosemary. The aroma that filled the house was amazing.
The soup topping is chopped walnuts, lemon zest and rosemary.
The rosemary blends perfectly with the white beans and chicken broth to create a succulent bisque.
We thought it was amazing on the first day, but the next day leftovers were out of this world. We served it up with Provolone Grilled Cheese sandwiches that were taken to the next level when dunked in the soup.
The perfect lunch, delicious soup, baked bread and fruit for dessert.

Let me know how it turns out for you! Happy weekend!
Just the sort of recipe that I like. Simple but tasty. I grew Rosemary at my old home and I used it with so many dishes. I’ve just eaten my lunch but now that I’ve read your recipe I’m hungry again!!
It is such good soup! I hope you have a chance to try it. Happy Sunday!
Oh I am so excited about this recipe! Rosemary is my favorite herb and I have multiple food allergies…none of them are in this recipe. YAY! I will be trying it out soon! I would love for you to come over and link up this post on Thursday at Thursday Favorite Things over on my blog so I can feature you next week. The party starts at 9:00 a.m. EST. Just leave me a comment with you link number.
Hope to see you there, and thanks for sharing this. I am hungry now!
Thanks for letting me know about your party, Amber! I’ll put you on my party schedule! Have a great week ahead!
Hi! Your soup recipe sounds amazing! My Mom lives with us and she is allergic to onions ( I KNOW!) and I was wondering if the flavor of the soup would suffer too much without them. I wonder what you think?
You might try substituting the white parts only of leeks instead of the onions. I hope you can try it. It is absolutely one of the best soups I have ever had! Let me know if you try it.
I love bean soup, I know a few recipes, but I will definitely try this one; I am intrigued by the topping :).
The topping is so good, Teodora! Let me know if you make it and what you think.
Love Make it Pretty Monday, and I’m so happy to find a soup recipe that I’m actually going to try (rather than just pin 🙂
Let me know if you try the soup! It’s delish! Thank you for partying with me again!
Mmmm this sounds superb, I’m saving this for next soup making day #bloggersbest
Yum! This sounds like a wonderful comfort food to come home to after a long cold day outside. I love rosemary so much. I’m going to give this a try in my pressure cooker.
Thanks for joining #WanderingWednesday at Confessions of Parenting! 🙂
Ah yes love it when food tastes better after a day. May well give this recipe a try as I aim to eat more healthily #BloggingBeautifully
This sounds wonderful – I love the addition of walnuts! Thanks for sharing with Party in Your PJs!
Sounds so yummy! Thanks so much for sharing at the #happynowlinkup!
Kathryn, the way you wrote this with your lovely photos, especially showing us the ingredients…perfect! Makes me want a bowl right now. We eat a lot of soup in our household…nothing homemade though. Dare I say, “Progresso” from the grocery store? I know we would love it…bean soup is heavenly, hearty, and good for you.
Thank you so much, Florence! I hope you get an opportunity to try it! Have a beautiful week ahead!
Sounds delicious. Thanks for sharing at Home Sweet Home.
Hi Kathryn,
The addition of the rosemary to your White Bean Soup will give the soup such a special flavor. A bowl of this soup would be perfect on this cold winter day. Hope you are having a great day and thanks so much for sharing with us at Full Plate Thursday and come back to see us real soon!
