Tuscan White Bean Soup with Prosciutto
The canned beans allow you to prepare this Tuscan white bean soup in just over 30 minutes. While the soup is simmering, you might want to assemble a garden salad and toast slices of Italian bread to complete the meal.

- 1 cup chopped onion
- 3/4 cup chopped celery
- 3/4 cup chopped carrot
- 1 garlic clove, minced

- 2 tablespoons minced fresh parsley
- 2 tablespoons sherry (optional)
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper

Heat the oil in a large stockpot over medium heat. Add the prosciutto, and sauté for 2 minutes. Add the onion, celery, carrot, and garlic; sauté for 2 minutes or until soft.
