WHITE BEAN SOUP WITH SALAD SALSA
I got this recipe from a friend. I believe it originally came from a cookbook called HeartSmart. It is very good and good for you. For a quick meal, substitute canned beans. I have also substituted chicken stock for the vegetable stock with no problems. The salsa is best in the summer when there are "real" tomatoes!
