Vegetable and Bean Soup - 18g Carbs
{Suggestions: Cut down on sodium by not using added salt (1/4 tsp kosher salt)! Use no salt added canned beans or rinse well. Using low sodium chicken broth!! OR instead of (1 cube vegetable bouillon) use part chicken and part vegetable broth! Use unsalted butter! Take care, Gloria}
From: "The Everyday Low-Carb Slow Cooker Cookbook"

broth, and additional olive oil for the butter.
