Parsley and Dill in my Garden |
I added 1 8oz can of tomato sauce. (you can add tomato paste or even two tablespoons of pasta red sauce)
I did not have any chicken broth or stock so I add in 2 Goya Pollo chicken powder packs to give it the flavor.
Next add the can of of Goya Small white beans (Habichuelas Blancas) 15.5 oz. do not drain. Simmer until tender.
Remember everything is up to your taste. I taste my creations to see if I need to add more spices.
Put your finished soup into a blender and puree it then I added to my bowl of soup
some light cream. Hey if you want to use milk, half n half or even be creative add a spoon of sour cream.
I garnished with a little of my garden parsley and dill |
