- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 onion, chopped
- 4 garlic cloves, minced
- 1 teaspoon cumin
- 2 teaspoons oregano
- 2 teaspoons salt
- 3 cans Great Northern beans (15 oz each)

1. Heat olive oil in a large pot over medium heat.
2. Add in the garlic and onion. Sauté for a few minutes.
3. Stir in the cumin, oregano, and salt.
4. Add 2 cans of northern beans to the pot and use an immersion blender to puree the beans, keeping some texture. (Alternatively, use a regular blender.)

7. Let soup simmer for about 15 minutes.

Notes
Do NOT drain any of the cans; include the liquid as it contributes to the soup’s texture and flavor.
For extra spice, consider adding diced jalapeños or a pinch of cayenne pepper.
This soup freezes well—store in an airtight container for up to 3 months.
