Easy Baked Bean Soup Recipe – 4 WW Freestyle SmartPoints

Weight Watchers Recipe of the Day: Easy Baked Bean Soup

This recipe for easy baked bean soup may not be much to look at, but it is really simple to make and delicious to eat.

Easy Baked Bean Soup

I’ve made it several times this year. And every time I do, I ask myself why I don’t make it even more often.
 

The Skinny on Easy Baked Bean Soup

This baked bean soup is really that easy and that good.

And it’s such a great way to use up leftover baked beans – if you make homemade baked beans.

I don’t, at least not very often. But I always seem to have a can or two of them in the cupboard.

I seem to be making and collecting soup recipes more and more these days. Probably because they’re easy and nutritious.

I’ve come across lots of bean soup recipes – but never one for easy baked bean soup until this one in my old Fannie Farmer Cookbook – a wedding gift from my grandmother – caught my eye.

With just 5 ingredients – not counting salt and pepper – it’s super simple to make.

You just stir everything together in a pot and let it simmer for about 30 minutes until the vegetables are tender.

Then just give it a whirl in the blender or mash it until smooth with a potato masher.

What could be simpler?

This easy baked bean soup is great for a simple healthy lunch or supper.

Serve it with whole wheat toast or a batch of warm from the oven healthy muffins – if you’re feeling especially ambitious.

I hope you give this easy soup a try. While it’s not much to look at, I think you’ll be pleasantly surprised.

My Cooking Tips & Variations for this Easy Baked Bean Soup Recipe:

• I usually puree this soup as directed. It’s also good when you puree just some of the soup and leave the rest chunky – which is what I did the last time I made it.
• Add more water if you like thinner soups.
• I think you could also make this in your slow cooker. Just let it cook on low for 6 to 8 hours – which is the way I plan to make it next time.
• Adjust the chili powder to suit your tastes. I sometimes add a little more, but if you’re serving it to kids you might want to skip it altogether.
• Sometimes I add chopped or sliced hot dogs to it to make it a little heartier.
