I saut?ed chopped onion in olive oil then added two big, chopped cloves of garlic for about 30 seconds, and added tomato paste (instead of canned tomatoes) followed by broth. It was so delicous! I didn't even need to add the herbs. Pureeing some of the beans gives the soup a wonderful, rich texture. I didn't even bother cooking it for the whole 20 minutes, it didn't need it.
