No one said that the tomato in a BLT had to be sliced. This fresh soup is quickly made and goes well with grilled cheese sandwiches.

1 (15-ounce) can cooked white beans (cannellini or navy)
1 1/2 teaspoons Italian seasoning
2 teaspoons balsamic vinegar
1 cup shredded leaf lettuce
1/4 cup thinly sliced fresh basil leaves
