    2 cups dried great northern beans (about 1 pound)
    cooking spray
    1 cup chopped onion
    6 garlic cloves, chopped
    1 cup diced peeled baking potato
    2 teaspoons chopped fresh or 1/2 teaspoon dried thyme
    3 (16-ounce) cans vegetarian chicken-flavored broth
    2 bay leaves
    2 cups diced seeded tomato
    1/4 cup chopped fresh basil
    1 tablespoon lemon juice
