This is a quick soup using mainly prepackaged ingredients that can be made very quickly. I threw it together when my parents came to visit, and we all liked it very much. I used the packages I found at the store, but these exact amounts are not required. Use whatever size you can find that's close. This recipe can easily be made vegetarian by leaving out the bacon bits, or also leave out the cheese and make it vegan. Be careful with extra salt, as all the canned ingredients make this fairly salty. Wait to taste the soup after it is heated before adding more salt. Ingredients:
2 tablespoons olive oil |
1 (3 ounce) package ready to serve bacon bits |
1 large sweet onion, chopped (about 1 lb.) |
2 teaspoons dried thyme |
2 (14 1/2 ounce) cans vegetable broth |
2 (15 1/2 ounce) cans small white beans |
1 lb coleslaw mix (cabbage and carrots) |
salt and pepper |
shredded italian cheese blend (parmesan, romano, asiago, etc.) |
Directions:
1. Put soup pan on medium high heat.
2. Pour olive oil in pan.
3. Crisp bacon bits in oil.
4. Add onion and cook until softened slightly.
5. Add thyme, beans, coleslaw mix, and broth.
6. Reduce heat to medium and cook until coleslaw mix is soft and soup is heated through.
7. Salt and pepper to taste.
8. Serve in bowls with a sprinkle of cheese.
