This recipe takes just 20 minutes from start to finish but tastes like it’s been simmering all day. You can sub kale, silver beet or any of your favourite green for the spinach in this tasty soup! This is a goodie for the Queens in the Southern Hemisphere right now going into winter, but can also be eaten cold if you're going into warmer months.
P.S the optional goats cheese really shouldn't be optional. It is very delish. Sub this for feta if ya fancy. Spinach and White Bean Soup

In a large pot over medium heat, heat 2 tbsp of the oil. Add the onion and saute until translucent, about 5 minutes.
