I found this soup recipe on the Internet somewhere and thought it sounded good. I made it for lunch today and I loved it! The kids would NEVER eat it, but I will definitely be making it again for myself. There is no fat and lots of fiber. So yay for a healthy lunch!
Refried Bean Soup
2 cans rotel (I used mild because I am a wimp)
2 cloves garlic minced (used jarred kind because I was lazy)
1 cup onion, finely chopped ( I always keep chopped onions in freezer)
2 cans fat free refried beans
3 cups fat free chicken broth, divided
Combine rotel, garlic, onion, and 1 cup of broth in a large pan. Boil for 5 minutes, stirring often.
Stir in beans and remaining 2 cups of broth. Simmer over low heat for 20 minutes, stirring often.
Makes 10 1 cup servings. (I halved the recipe.)
If you want to make it even better--but more fattening, you can top it with shredded cheese or sour cream, or even crushed tortilla chips. Yummy and very filling.
I think like my sister would really like it (so try it W!). A good lunch to take to work!
