32 ounces vegetable broth
2 (15 ounce) cans white beans
1 lb fresh asparagus, cut into bite-size pieces
2 tablespoons olive oil
3 carrots, peeled and sliced into thin coins
1 cup frozen corn
4 cups Baby Spinach
1 (6 ounce) can tomato paste
salt & pepper
3 tablespoons sugar
1 tablespoon minced garlic
2 tablespoons minced onions
1 tablespoon mixed Italian herbs
1 ½ cups water
½ teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
1 dash cayenne pepper (optional)

1
Start by sauteeing garlic, crushed red pepper & onion in the olive oil in a large stewpot.
2
After about 20-30 seconds over medium heat, add asparagus and carrots, raise heat slightly and continue to stir occasionally for 5-6 minutes.
3
Add vegetable broth, tomato paste & water and bring to a simmer, stirring until tomato paste is well incorporated.
4
Add chopped herbs (I love fresh basil, thyme & oregeno, but I also use Mrs.
5
Dash when I don't have anything fresh on hand), sugar and salt.
6
I don't measure salt, but I'd guess I use about 1/2-1 teaspoons Allow this to simmer, covered for about 10 minutes.
7
Add 2 cans of white beans (do NOT drain them as the liquid packed in the beans help the soup to thicken) and bring back to a simmer.
8
At this point, taste the broth and add cayenne or a bit more salt to adjust to your preference.
9
Add corn and baby spinach, stirring gently, and simmer for an additional 5-6 minutes.
10
I love to serve this with garlic toast, cheese quesadillas, or just by itself topped with a bit of parmesan cheese.
