So easy and delicious

I made this on a Sunday night and packed the leftovers for lunch at work. I also added a little pancetta and grated asiago for extra flavor which was delicious!

This soup is a delicious, inexpensive & healthy meal. I exchanged one can of cannellini beans for black beans, added a little italian seasoning & toasted homemade bread.
Yum!

My kids just love this recipe, especially putting fontina in their soup. Got my mom hooked on it too. A few times I've run into canned beans that were kind of mushy. It's much better if the beans hold up a little bit. I like that it's a nice vegetarian meal, very easy to make, chance to use my favorite olive oil.

The garlic bread made the soup. Once you ran out of bread, the soup was bland, and the consistency... well, let's just say my husband compared it to the food that has already gone through the food processor. Overall, edible, but not something we will make again.
