Ingredients

- 1 onion , yellow/white
- 1 1/4 cup (280g) cannellini beans , pre-cooked canned

- 8 cup (4 litres) chicken stock/broth
- 1 brassica rapa (bok choy) , cut into thin strips
- 1/2 tbsp olive oil

Instructions
- Finely chop the carrot, celery and onion. Heat the olive oil in a large pot and saute the chopped veg until soft but not browned (6-7 minutes).

Notes
- Homemade Pesto Recipe Here.
- Brassica rapa or bok choy can be replaced with spinach, kale or any greens of your choice.
- If substituting brassica rapa for spinach, kale or a green without thick stalks then add it at the same time as the beans and pesto (simmer the soup for 10 minutes before proceeding to this step). If replacing with cabbage, follow directions as normal.
- Substitute the brassica rapa for roughly, 80g (2.8oz) chopped spinach, kale, cabbage.
