  1. Begin with a clean prep area and poached chicken breasts, cooled and shredded. Set chicken aside on plate.
  2. In a large stock pot or Dutch oven over medium high heat, add olive oil to heat. Stir in chopped yellow onion, then add chopped frozen celery and frozen peas and carrots into the pot, and saute until they begin to soften (around 3-4 minutes).
  3. Add thyme, bay leaves, parsley, salt and pepper in with vegetable mixture, stirring to coat. Continue sauteing an additional 2 minutes.

  6. Bring soup mixture to a low boil; reduce heat and simmer on low heat for 15-20 minutes to let flavors combine.
  7. While soup is simmering, add drained and rinsed cannellini beans into a high speed blender with 1 cup of water. Blend until well pureed.
  8. In the last 5 minutes of cooking time, add cannellini bean puree into soup mixture, stirring to combine well.
  9. Stir potato gnocchi into pot, and continue cooking until gnocchi dumplings float to the top. Serve hot, and enjoy!
