Quick Pureed Green Bean Soup

"Our family has known for decades, that if you have a canker(mouth)sore, you eat 1/2 can of green beans and the canker will be gone the following day. A prescribed medication, recently, rendered my mouth full of cankers and too sore to even chew canned green beans. DIL suggested putting the canned green beans in my Bullet blender (best invention in years).My thought was, baby food. Okay! DH suggested soup! Thus this tasty recipe was born only an hour ago. I am waiting to see what the Zaar-ist comunity will add to it. Tabasco? Bacon? A grilled cheese sandwich? I dedicate this recipe to my DIL, Shar."

  1. So simple and satisfying. I added a touch more lemon and pepper. I'm vegan so I used No-Chicken veggie broth. I doubled the recipe. Will use this recipe again.
     
  2. Wow! Pleasantly surprised. Easy and this will help me use up 4 cases of green beans I have to use up soon. The lemon made this perfect and took away any "canned" taste. I may add cayenne pepper next batch.
     
  3. This is amazing! I did a couple changes like Im not a beef person so I used chicken broth and I don't eat basil. But I make this soup all the time and its very healthy and low calorie!!!
