Ingredients:

Serving

1 tbsp olive oil
2 large leeks (white and pale green parts only), thinly sliced (about 3 cups)
1/2 cup chopped peeled carrot
4 1/2 cups canned low-salt chicken broth
2 cups shelled fresh fava beans (from about 2 lb unshelled)
5 oz green beans, trimmed , cut into 1-inch pieces
8 oz asparagus , tough ends trimmed, spears cut diagonally into 1-inch pieces
2/3 cup thinly sliced fresh basil
freshly grated parmesan cheese (optional)

Directions:

Heat oil in heavy large saucepan over medium heat. Add leeks and carrot; sauté until vegetables are tender but not brown, about 8 minutes. Add broth and bring to boil. Add favas and green beans and simmer until almost tender, about 8 minutes. Add asparagus and 1/3 cup basil and simmer until all vegetables are very tender, about 7 minutes longer. Season soup with salt and pepper. Stir in 1/3 cup basil. Ladle soup into bowls. Serve, passing Parmesan separately, if desired.
