Directions
Mediterranean Thai Eggplant White Bean Soup, This is the first of my Pantry Challenge recipes I am making a dish from whatever I have at home already – those ingredients which are just waiting around This soup came out quite nicely, with a great texture and a wonderfully creamy and rich taste! The leftovers didn’t last long, either hubby and I ended up fighting over who got the last bit :), OMG this was AMAZING! I am not vegan or anything but I had to make this for my husband who is doing some sort of Easter fast for his Eastern Orthodox church At any rate, we made this together and it was really good! I will certainly make this again!, The flavors just didn’t come out like I thought they would I made just as directed If I made it again, I would use more garlic and ad salt & pepper
