This looks fantastic! I don’t see those giant beans used very often, but they have such a wonderful creamy texture and hearty taste. Perfect in a tomato soup! Thanks for sharing this with Sunday Night Soup Night, look forward to seeing you again soon!
Yes, giant beans are really nice and hearty. Their like small chunks of potato in consistency. I love them even on their own! Thanks for commenting.
