Ingredients

Instructions

1. Heat the olive oil in a stock pot over medium heat.
2. Finely chop the onion, roughly chop the garlic, and cut the red bell pepper and peeled carrots into small bite-sized pieces.
3. Add the vegetables and stir for 3 to 4 minutes until lightly sautéed. Add the grated tomatoes, oregano, thyme, salt and pepper. Stir, then simmer without stirring until the tomato thickens slightly, about 3 minutes.
4. Add the drained, rinsed white beans and the vegetable broth. Bring to a boil over high heat, stirring gently, then cover and reduce to low-medium heat.
5. Cook for 15 minutes, then remove the lid. Stir in the roughly chopped spinach and the juice of half a lemon, cooking about 30 seconds until the spinach is lightly wilted.
6. Remove from heat, ladle into shallow bowls, top with a little grated Manchego and serve.
