- 1 can cannelini beans
- 2 medium bok choy
- ½ onion (diced)
- 1 carrot (diced)
- 1 celery (stalk, diced)
- 3 cloves garlic (chopped)
- 6 stems thyme

- 2 tbsp no chicken base (bouillon broth)

- 1 splash oil (for sauteing)
Instructions
- Chop ½ onion, 1 carrot, 1 celery, 3 cloves garlic, and 2 medium bok choy.
- In a large pot over medium high heat, add 1 splash oil. Saute the onion, carrot, and celery for a couple minutes.
- Add the garlic, bok choy ends (the white part), 6 stems thyme and 1 stem sage*. Saute for a few more minutes, until aromatic.
- Add 6 cups water and 2 tbsp no chicken base. Bring to a boil, then cover and reduce heat to a simmer for 10 minutes.

- Remove thyme and sage using tongs. Serve and enjoy!
Notes
* Some people tie the herbs together to make a garnished bouquet (known as a bouquet garni in French), making it easier to remove after.
