This is a simple hearty soup that is just perfect in cooler weather. This comes together quickly, but tastes like it has been simmering for hours. Ingredients:
1 tablespoon oil |
1 small onion, diced |
4 cloves garlic, minced |
2 (15 ounce) cans small white beans, drained |
3 (14 1/2 ounce) cans chicken broth |
1 large tomato, chopped |
1 1/2 cups chopped cooked ham |
1 teaspoon dried thyme |
salt and pepper, to taste |
Directions:
1. Heat oil in a large saucepan. 2. Add onion and garlic and cook until tender, 2-3 minutes. 3. Add the beans and broth and bring them to a boil. 4. Reduce heat and simmer for 10 minutes. 5. With a fork, mash about one-fourth of the beans, stirring well to slightly thicken the soup. 6. Add the tomato, ham, and thyme, and cook until the soup is heated through, about 5 minutes. 7. Season to taste with salt and pepper. |
