Moroccan Bean Soup
with carrots, roasted red peppers, and chickpeas

Active: 35 Total: 35

This hearty Morrocan soup, which last appeared in a meal plan in 2022, will keep you warm and full, with sweet roasted peppers and alluring North African spices.
Smarts: Roasted bell peppers bring a wonderfully sweet and complex flavor to this dish. You can find pre-roasted red bell peppers in a glass jar in the canned vegetables aisle, so you can bring depth of flavor without having to turn the oven on or fire up the grill.
