Tomato Green Bean Soup
This colorful soup is delicious anytime of year. When I can't get homegrown tomatoes and green beans, I've found that frozen beans and canned tomatoes (or even stewed tomatoes) work just fine. Served with warm breadsticks, this soup is a complete meal. —Bernice Nolan, Granite City, Illinois

Delicious soup! I sauted the onion and carrots and about 12 ozs of cubed ham and only used 4 cups of broth. I used 1 can of Italian style petite diced tomatoes and about 4 little Campari tomatoes. This was very flavorful. I will definitely make this one again and again. So simple but some delicious.
Loved the soup recipe. I used can of diced tomatoes, and I added diced ham, 1 tablespoon of sugar, and a few handfuls of small pasta. Very tasty. Thanks for sharing, Bernice!
I like it before I try it.
Made recipe as written. My husband loves soup for lunch. He had a 2nd bowl. Will try it with my homemade stewed tomatoes and my frozen green beans this winter.
Very good and low Weight Watcher points.
Oops for got to rate this yummy soup. Left my review abrove. ;-)
Made this with my fresh garden veggies and added sauteed chicken breast. Yummy...very tasty! My family is going to like this.
Very tasty soup. Good seasoning. I added some uncooked spiral rotini, red pepper flakes and instead of fresh tomatoes I added a can of petite diced tomatoes with garlic and olive oil.
