3. Stage

Simmer the soup: Turn heat down to low and simmer for five minutes.

Blend the beans: In a blender or food processor, add drained and rinsed cannellini beans, water, and cilantro. Blend until the mixture has become a green paste. Add to the chili and stir until the soup has thickened slightly.
