Boston Bean Soup

Serves 4


Ingredients:

850g/13⁄4lb canned cooked pinto beans, drained

2 tomatoes, chopped

1 celery stick, sliced

1 medium onion, chopped

Preparation Method:

Put the beans, tomatoes, celery, onion, bay leaf and stock in a medium saucepan. Cover the pan, and bring the mixture to the boil over a medium-high heat.

Reduce the heat and simmer for about 20 minutes until the vegetables are quite soft. Leave the soup to sit, uncovered, for a further 20 minutes. Remove the bay leaf.
