Escarole & White Bean Soup

Escarole & White Bean Soup was pinched from <a href="http://www.eatingwell.com/recipes/escarole_white_bean_soup.html" target="_blank">www.eatingwell.com.</a>

"Don't be afraid of escarole, which looks like slightly frilly romaine lettuce, because it cooks down into a sweet and tender green. If you can't find it, substitute a 10-ounce bag of spinach. Make It a Meal: Warm crusty bread and a green salad make an excellent accompaniment...."
