I made Aimees Refried Bean Soup today and forgot how good that really was.

I didn't have the FF Beans so I used LaPreferdia (sp?) Zesty Beans and eliminated the garlic and onions.

Absolutely delicious.

Aint that something, i was looking throught Aimee's cookbook and bought stuff to make the Potato Soup & The Taco Soup.

I made this today and I also forgot how good it is..Hubby and I ate some for lunch today and I'll take some to work with me tomorrow...thanks for reminding us how good it is.

What is the recipe...it's freezing here - could use some soup!

I did a cut/paste--I think this is the one she's referring to.
