Garden Garbanzo Soup

"From The Complete Diabetes Prevention Plan. I do love vegetable soups! This one is creamy and thickened from the partially pureed beans and potato.You could also throw in a small piece of Parmesan rind, but remove it before blending. This is easily made vegan by using vegetable stock and omitting the cheese. Exchanges per serving: 1 very lean meat, 1 1/2 starch, 1 vegetable, 1 fat."

RECIPE SUBMITTED BY

<p>This site has gotten so horribly bad over the past couple of years, I have stopped using it to manage my recipes and have gone over to using another one, which I have been forbidden to mention on Food.com. It's no secret that there are competitors; send me a message if you are in the same boat and would like to know. For now, I only frequent a few of the forums and that's it. The Titanic has sailed!</p>
