Instructions: Heat the oil in a nonstick saucepan, then add the onion. Saute until softened. Add the garlic, carrot and beans, then stir in the broth and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat and simmer, covered, until the vegetables are tender and can easily be mashed, about 15 min.

Transfer the soup to a food processor and puree. Return to the saucepan, stir in the basil and pepper, and heat to serving temp.

This was very good. We didnt puree the soup.
