Things have definitely been tightening up this past week or two due to the international pandemic that is currently affecting the world. People are going into isolation, businesses are closing their doors or cutting back to deliveries only and social distancing is in full swing. And if all that isn’t enough, the panic buying hasn’t eased up at all. Shelves are empty and it’s getting harder and harder for a lot of people to put together a normal meal.
Using What You Have…
Yep. That means it’s time to reach right into your pantry to hopefully dig out some pantry staple gold. That’s what I did this week and because of that, I created something that I’ll be more than happy to eat again and again. This Tomato & Mixed Bean Soup is a comforting go-to recipe using the basic pantry staples; tinned tomatoes & canned beans.
I guarantee that this soup does not taste like it came out of a can! It’s a great one-pot dinner recipe that is so simple and quick to make; it really is my kind of comfort food. It also makes for a really great meal prep recipe and can be frozen for another night!
