SMOKY PINTO BEAN AND POTATO SOUP

Smoky Pinto Bean and Potato Soup image

The original recipe was vegetarian, but I add beef and corn. Without those 2 ingredients it has 137 calories & 1.7 g of fat per serving. It's also good with some hot sauce and sour cream added when you serve it.

The fresh basil flavors this hearty soup, but if you can't find fresh, use 1/2 teaspoon dried basil and stir it in when you add the broth. From a vegetarian cookbook of mine.
