  • 1 cup white onion diced
  • 3 cloves fresh garlic chopped or minced
  • 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
  • 1 teaspoon dried thyme
  • ½ teaspoon dried rosemary
  • 1 quart vegetable broth
  • 2 cups water

Notes

For the best slow-cooked flavor, use the low setting. If you're in a hurry, you can cook it on high for 3 hours instead.
If you prefer a creamier soup, use a potato masher or an immersion blender to partially mash about one cup of the beans directly in the pot before serving. This creates a thick, velvety base without needing to add any dairy.
Allow the soup to cool completely before transferring it to an airtight container. It will stay fresh in the refrigerator for 3 to 4 days.
This soup freezes beautifully! Store it in freezer-safe bags or containers, leaving about an inch of space at the top for expansion. It can be frozen for up to 3 months.
Thaw frozen soup in the fridge overnight. Reheat on the stovetop over medium heat or in the microwave, stirring occasionally until warmed through. If the soup has thickened too much, add a splash of broth or water to reach your desired consistency.
