Tips from the Betty Crocker Kitchens

  • tip 1
    The Institute of Medicine recommends that we get about 28 grams of fiber a day based on a 2000 calorie diet. Enjoy this tasty soup on your way to that goal.
  • tip 2
    Great northern or other white beans can be used instead of the cannellini beans.
