Added about 10 garlic gloves.
Added a few cuts of potato.
Added some Parmesan.

I made this for Easter Sunday lunch and it was absolutely delicious. After reading a few reviews, I made a few tweaks to suit my family.

* I used vegetable stock instead of chicken stock
* Used 6 cloves of garlic instead of 4
* Use 3 cans of beans instead of 2
* After blending, I passed the soup through a seive to remove any peel from the beans
* Served with some grated parmesan and grilled ciabatta rubbed with garlic

Will definately be making this again, but will consider either using less stock or another can of beans, as I would have liked it to have been a bit thicker.

This recipe is very easy to make and is very delicious, and, my wife loves it. I am back for a second time to copy this recipe. We both love everything that Giada has to offer, including her lovely home and garden with a view in Malibu, and her youthful exuberance.

Fantastic!! I didn't blend all of the soup, because I wanted to have some beans and shallot and garlic peices. The sage really gives a great flavor.

You'll love this soup, its light, silky and filling enough for dinner. Don't forget to serve it with ciabatta or a hearty bread!

Everyone LOVED it, including my 3 young kids! I used less broth because I wanted the soup to be a little thicker. I also used extra garlic! If you don't have shallots, you can substitute red onion...it works fine!

I made this recipe with a few changes after reading reviews. I roasted 2 heads of garlic (we are huge garlic fans in the oven for 45 mins. Then I made the soup as directed. It was SO GOOD. Tons of flavor, creamy, luscious and delicious. It doesn't make that much, however. My boyfriend and I had it for dinner one night, and had enough left over for one bowl each the next day. If I made it again I'd double it so I had lots and some to freeze. A+!
