Instructions
Step 1
Start by pulsing the baby spinach and carrot together in a food processor until they’re finely chopped. Heat some oil in a large pot over medium heat, then add the shallot and garlic. Cook them for a few minutes until they smell amazing and start to soften. Next, toss in the spinach and carrot mixture along with the chicken stock, white beans, oregano, thyme, salt, and pepper. Bring everything to a boil, stirring now and then, then lower the heat and let it simmer gently for about 20 minutes so all the flavors can meld together. Once it’s done, take the pot off the heat and stir in the lemon juice. Finally, use an immersion blender to puree the soup until it’s nice and smooth.
