Tuscan White Bean Soup Recipe

Soup is one of my favorite things to make. No matter if you are just learning to cook or a seasoned pro, it’s just one of those things that is hard to mess up! In addition to Soups being near fool-proof, they allow you to help exercise a lot of your creativity as well =) I love Soups like the Tuscan White Bean Soup these on rainy days. Especially during Autumn & Winter, and when someone is feeling under the weather. For me… it is always the answer! I hope this soup bring you as much coziness as it does me. Pour some in a mug, snuggle under a warm blanket & Enjoy!    Cheers!
