													This isn’t your standard white bean soup recipe! Curry powder, coriander and ginger add a wonderful depth of flavor to this easy vegan soup, and a splash of coconut milk adds just the right amount of creaminess.

                                Ingredients
- 2 teaspoons olive oil
 - 1 small onion chopped
 - 2 medium carrots diced
 - 2 celery stalks diced
 - ½ teaspoon kosher salt
 - ½ teaspoon ground pepper
 - 4 large garlic cloves minced
 - 2 tablespoons minced ginger
 - 4 teaspoons curry powder
 - 1 teaspoon ground coriander
 - ⅛ teaspoon cayenne pepper (or more for heat)
 - 1 (14 oz.) can petite diced tomatoes
 - 4 cups vegetable broth (See Note 1)
 - 1 cup water
 - 3 (14 oz. each) cans White beans drained & rinsed (See Note 2)
 - ½ cup coconut milk well-shaken (See Note 3)
 - 1 tablespoon fresh lime juice
 - 2 cups Fresh Spinach Leaves
 - ¼ cup minced flat-leaf parsley
 - salt and pepper to taste
 
Instructions
- Heat the olive oil in a large saucepan set over medium heat. Add the onion, carrots, celery, salt and pepper. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the onion is translucent and the carrots are beginning to soften, about 5 minutes.
 - Stir in the ginger, garlic, curry powder, ground coriander and cayenne pepper. Cook for 1 minute.
 - Add the tomatoes, broth and water. Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat so that the mixture cooks at a lively simmer.
 - Mash half of the beans with the back of a fork or a potato masher, then stir into the soup. Reserve the remaining beans. Simmer the soup for 20 minutes, stirring occasionally.
 - Add the remaining beans. Continue to simmer for 10 minutes.
 - Stir in the coconut milk, lime juice, spinach and parsley.
 - Taste and adjust seasoning as desired. Serve.
 
Notes
- Weight Watchers Points: 3 (Blue - Freestyle SP) / 6 (Green) / 3 (Purple)
 - Note 1: Chicken broth can be used in a pinch, but the recipe will no longer be vegetarian/vegan.
 - Note 2: Any canned white beans – white kidney beans, cannellini beans or great northern beans – work in this recipe.
 - Note 3: I encourage you to use the full-fat version for flavor and texture. However, lite coconut milk can be used if preferred.
