Healthy Hamburger & Green Bean Soup Recipe #17591
I make this thick, comforting soup often for my family during the cold winter months. It is so fast & easy to fix and it is rather low in fat and calories. This makes 4 very large servings. To reduce sodium, you may use low sodium green beans if you prefer. I adapted this recipe from "Fast,Cheap,& Easy," by JoAnna Lund. Condensed cream of tomato soup and condensed regular tomato soup are interchangeable in this recipe, no alterations necessary... the important part is that it is indeed a condensed version of tomato soup, as opposed to ready to serve.
