White Bean and Escarole Soup

Recently, I made this quick soup for my BF who loves bitter greens. You'll see I left out some ingredients, as you can't go wrong here. Below is the basic recipe and it can be thrown together in no time flat. Add a crunchy, toasty GF bread (Everybody Eats french baguette is calling to me), a sprinkle of Parmesan and yum!
