White Bean Soup

Ingredients
1 tablespoon olive oil
2 Cloves Garlic, crushed
1 Yellow Onion, chopped
1 large Carrot, chopped
1 (10 ounce) can Golden Corn, drained
Sea Salt and Pepper to taste
5 cups Reduced Sodium Chicken Broth
1 (15.5 ounce) can White Beans
1 cup diced fresh Tomatoes
1 teaspoon Dried Thyme
1 teaspoon Dried Summer Savory
1 teaspoon Dried Parsley
Crumbled Jennie - O Turkey Bacon (Optional Garnish)


Directions
1 - Heat oil in a large stock pot over medium-high heat. Saute garlic and onion until tender, approximately 5 minutes. Stir in carrot and corn, season with salt and pepper, and cook another 2 to 3 minutes. Pour in chicken broth, beans, tomatoes, thyme, savory, and parsley, and bring to a low boil. Reduce to a simmer, cover, and cook approximately one hour.
2 - Separate soup into 2 equal portions, and allow to cool to room temperature. Once cooled, puree half of the batch in a blender or food processor until smooth. Return both batches to the stockpot, and heat until warmed through. Adjust seasoning with salt and pepper as needed. Garnish the soup with the bacon and serve. Serve hot.
