The ingredients for White Bean Soup with Bacon are:

2 cans College Inn Light & Fat Free chicken broth
2 cans Publix great northern beans
Carrots, raw, 2 cup, chopped
Celery, raw, 1 cup, diced
Onions, raw, 1 cup, chopped
*Smart Balance Buttery Spread, 4 tbsp
*Hormel Bacon Bits, 6 tbsp
Garlic, 2 tsp
salt and pepper to taste (I recommend seasoned salt--yum!)
dill weed to taste

Here is how you make White Bean Soup with Bacon:

chop onions and celery and saute with garlic and black pepper in smart balance until tender; add chicken broth; add carrots and beans and bacon bits and stir. simmer for 2-3 hours, seasoning as desired. if desired, remove some beans and mash with a potato masher (or fork), then return to pot. this will thicken the soup a bit. (for a thicker soup, whisk a little cornstarch into the chicken broth before adding it to the pot--as the soup boils, the cornstarch will thicken up).Serving Size: Makes 8 servingsNumber of Servings: 6Recipe submitted by SparkPeople user THATBRONWYNGIRL.
