Instructions

If using an immersion blender: Add water, white beans, tomato paste, and 1/3 cup diced tomatoes to a large soup pot. Blend until smooth.
If using a regular blender: Puree white beans, tomato paste, and 1/3 cup diced tomatoes with 4–6 cups warm water. Pour into the pot with remaining water.
Bring the puree mixture to a boil. Add green beans, diced potatoes, and carrots. Cook for 10 minutes.
Add remaining ingredients (tomatoes, onion, peas, corn, salt, pepper, sugar, and pasta if using). Stir and bring back to a boil for 5 minutes.
Reduce heat to medium and simmer uncovered for 25–30 minutes, or until potatoes and carrots are tender.
Serve hot and enjoy.

Notes

Pasta addition: Add ditalini, macaroni, or alphabet pasta for a fun and filling twist.

Spicy kick: Add red pepper flakes or hot sauce for extra heat.

Herby flavor: Toss in fresh parsley, thyme, or bay leaves while simmering.

Bean swap: Use kidney beans or chickpeas instead of white beans.

Seasonal veggies: Substitute zucchini, bell peppers, or celery depending on availability.

Refrigerate in airtight container for up to 4 days.

Freeze in individual portions for up to 3 months; thaw overnight before reheating.

Reheat gently on stovetop or microwave, adding water or broth if thickened.
