This recipe is directly from , She developed this recipe for Bob's Red Mill. She says, Greek Beans and Grains Soup is tart, chewy, creamy, herby, and all-around delicious. Paired with Rustic Greek Cornbread and a light green salad, it’s great for lunch or dinner. If you’re like me, you’ll also eat it for breakfast. To make the soup vegan be sure to use vegetable stock or water (it’s richer if made with stock). She further notes, You can turn this recipe into a salad. To do so, use 6 cups stock, don’t cover pot while it simmers, and cook liquid down until it’s almost gone, stirring regularly to prevent burning. When beans are done, stir in onions, dill, lemon juice, and lemon peel. Serve hot or at room temperature.
