• Preparation Time: 30 minutes
• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 1 medium red onion, chopped
• 2 medium carrots, peeled and diced
• 1 large celery stalk, diced
• 1/4 teaspoon red-pepper flakes
• 1/4 teaspoon dried fresh rosemary
• Coarse salt and ground pepper
• 1 can (14.5 ounces) whole peeled tomatoes, drained and finely chopped
• 1 large potato, peeled and diced
• 1/4 head green cabbage (1/2 pound), cored and thinly sliced
• 1 can (15 ounces) cannellini beans, rinsed and drained
• 1/2 pound green beans, trimmed and cut into 1-inch pieces
• 12 garlic cloves, minced
• 1/4 cup thinly sliced fresh basil
• 3/4 cup grated Parmesan, for serving

1. In a large pot, heat oil over medium. Add onion, carrots, celery, red-pepper flakes, rosemary, 1 1/2 teaspoons salt, and 1/4 teaspoon pepper. Cook, stirring occasionally, until onion begins to turn golden, 5 to 8 minutes.
2. Add tomatoes; cook until some of the liquid evaporates, 1 minute. Add potato, cabbage, cannellini beans, and 7 cups water; bring to a boil. Stir in green beans.
3. Reduce to a simmer, and cook until all the vegetables are tender, about 20 minutes. Season with salt and pepper; stir in garlic, if using, and basil. Serve sprinkled with Parmesan.

What can I say? I love Everyday Food. This was really good, and since I had a ton of leftover veggies, I made another soup using the scraps the next week.
