Here’s another soup to have on hand as the temperatures continue to drop. I meal prepped this soup this week and, trust me when I say, the flavor gets better and better each day! This soup gives comfort food feels because it’s creamy from the white beans and coconut milk. This recipe used white beans made from dry following the pacakge directions. Instead of using water, I cooked them in vegetable broth. However, you can easily use canned beans instead!
The good in this? Let’s focus on the flavor. Curry is a spice blend that is usually comprised of cumin, turmeric and coriander. You can also make your own curry blend at home and add garlic, cayenne and other spices to your liking. Turmeric may be beneficial for hyperlipidemia and osteoarthritis because of it’s anti-inflammatory components. Keeping a pantry stocked with spices is good for health and flavor!
