BEANS AND GREENS SOUP.
From my favorite chef, Rachael Ray. Yum-O! A great combination of flavors. Don't omit the nutmeg. It is the best part. You can also try this with other greens; spinach, kale, arugula... Add sliced mushrooms with the sautéed onions if you'd like. Grate some Parmesan cheese over the top and serve with crusty bread.
