4 ounces low-fat turkey bacon, finely chopped
1 yellow onion, coarsely chopped
1 celery stalk, coarsely chopped
1 carrot, sliced into ¼-inch rounds
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 quart chicken broth
Salt and pepper
1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese

1. Place beans in medium saucepan and fill with enough water to cover beans by two inches. Slowly bring to boil, and boil gently for 10 minutes.

4. Add strained beans, celery, carrot, garlic, and broth. Reduce heat and simmer for about 30 minutes.
5. Place mixture in food processor or blender and carefully puree in batches to desired consistency (a little chunky is great!)
