Instructions
- Over medium-high heat, heat the oil in a large pot with a lid. Add the onion, garlic, carrots, and celery. Sauté for 5 minutes.
- Add in the Italian seasoning and stir for 20 seconds.
- Add the tomato paste and mix for another 20 seconds.
- Add the water, vegetable bouillon cubes, beans, salt, and pepper. Mix well, bring to a boil, cover with the lid, and lower the heat to a simmer for 20 minutes.
- Once the 20 minutes have passed, turn off the heat, uncover, and blend 2 cups of soup. Pour the blended soup back into the pot and mix well.
- Add the kale and juice of one lemon if using. Mix well, cover with the lid, and allow the soup's heat to wilt the kale for 5 minutes.
- Serve and optionally garnish with parsley.

Notes
- Don’t speed up the sauté steps: This brings out the flavor of the various ingredients and deepens the flavor.
- Likewise, don’t rush the simmer: The longer it simmers, the deeper and more melded the flavors. This soup tastes even better on day two!
- To adjust the consistency: You decide how much (if any) of the soup to blend for a thin and brothy or thick and creamy cannellini bean soup. I prefer it creamy, but with plenty of chunky bits.
- To make it oil-free: Use ¼ cup broth to sauté the vegetables instead.
