 I have fulfilled my promised "meat recipe" for the week 
Broccoli Rabe & White Bean Soup

 I made this soup in 1 hour, but it tastes like I slaved over the stove for hours, and I already had most of the ingredient in the house

4 garlic cloves (minced)
Sea salt
Fresh ground pepper
1 cup cremini mushrooms, sliced
1 bunch broccoli rabe (1 pound) , chopped
2 cans (14.5oz cans) low-sodium vegetable broth
2 cups water
2 cans (15.5oz cans) cannellini beans, drained
1/4 cup parsley chopped

 Step by step picture instructions below 
  • In a large Dutch oven or heavy pot heat oil over medium heat
  • Add onions, garlic, and season with salt and pepper
  • Cook, stirring frequently, until onions have softened (8-10 mins)
  • Add mushrooms and stir for 2-4 mins
  • Add broccoli rabe, cook, stirring, until wilted 2-3 minutes
  • Add broth and water; season with salt and pepper
  • Bring to boil, then reduce heat to med-low
