White Bean Soup with Fonio Chips
With
There is never a wrong time for soup, especially when it’s as simple and delicious as this white bean soup. We added some Tangy Baobab Fonio Chips to the top as a crunchy garnish that helps add texture to the creamy, mildly flavored soup. We use canned beans, but cooked beans work just as well. By keeping the recipe simple, we save time, money, and energy to make an easy 15-minute meal for lunch or dinner!

Preparation

Step 1
In a medium saucepan with a lid, warm 1 tablespoon of oil over medium heat for about 2 minutes, or until it just begins to get hot but isn't smoking. Drop in the celery and onion and stir, coating the vegetables in the oil. After about 3-4 minutes, the vegetables should be tender and translucent. Add in the garlic and stir for about 1 minute, until fragrant and toasted. Add in the rinsed and drained beans and stir until mixed.
