Comfort food at its best. This Tuscan Bean Soup is so hearty and full of flavor they won’t realize they’re eating healthy!

Tuscan Bean Soup

Tuscan Bean Soup is one of my favorite soup recipes.  Most of the ingredients get pureed so it really is more of a thick stew.

Is this Tuscan Bean Soup recipe Vegetarian? 

This recipe can easily be made vegetarian or gluten free. Use vegetable broth in place of a meat based broth to make it vegetarian friendly. To make a gluten free version either eliminate the pasta or use a gluten free pasta.

The best part about this recipe is you feel like your cheating because it’s so delicious! I made this a couple months ago to share on the blog but it got gobbled up so fast it never made it to the photo shoot. This time I made a double batch just to be safe.

      Hi Divorced Kat. This recipe should serve between 6-8 depending on serving size. Last time I made this it was half of this recipe and it disappeared too quickly.This is the doubled version. Enjoy!

        This is a flavorful and hearty soup. I made it with sundried tomatoes that were not in oil, and I skipped the pasta to decrease the carbs. I used vegetable broth to make this vegetarian. My meat-eating family loved it.
