White Bean Soup (Fassoulatha)
By MissiAnn
Creamy white beans provide the heft and protein to this simple, flavorful soup. The recipe calls for dried beans, but to make this recipe in under 30 minutes, you can use four 15-ounce cans of your favorite white beans (rinse well to cut the sodium in the canning liquid).
