Dairy free, Low fat, Low GI

Get the Flash Player to see this player.

Soup was once regarded as peasant's food as it was all they could afford to eat. While the rich lorded over large cuts of fatty meat, the peasants would grab what bones they could find and boil them with veggies and beans. Understandably the peasants were lean and the rich were not.
Times are not so tough today but we can all learn from the peasants. This bean and veggie soup is a nutritious and inexpensive, meal which, when served hot provides instant comfort.

1 medium leek, thinly sliced
