Bean Soup 4 articles

Bean soup uses beans as a central ingredient, from white or black beans to kidney or mixed-bean combinations, usually cooked with vegetables, broth, tomatoes, herbs, or spices.

Packaged and restaurant bean soup versions can differ sharply from home-cooked examples in sodium, fiber, protein, and energy density, so recipe details matter more than the soup, stew, or curry label alone.
