2 19oz OR 15 1/2 oz cans cannellini beans, rinsed, divided
3 Tbsp extra-virgin olive oil, divided
1 medium onion, halved and sliced
4 cups shredded Savoy cabbage (1/2 medium head)
3 cloves garlic, minced, plus 1 clove garlic, halved
3 (14 1/2 oz cans) reduced-sodium chicken broth OR
5 1/4 cups vegetable broth
Freshly ground pepper to taste
8 1/2-inch-thick slices day-old whole-wheat country bread
1 cup grated fontina cheese or 1/2 cup Parmesan cheese
1. Mash 1 1/2 cups beans with a fork.
2. Heat 1 teaspoon oil over medium heat in a Dutch oven or soup pot.
Add onion and cook, stirring often, until softened and lightly browned,
