15Lemony White Bean & Potato Soup

You can also blend a portion of this soup if you prefer a creamier base, or leave it be if you enjoy a chunkier soup. But don’t skip the Parmesan rind; it adds a subtle nuttiness and salty richness to the broth (we always keep a couple stashed in the freezer for this purpose).
