Make this simple and delicious soup from dried, peeled fava beans. Long preparation time as you need to soak the beans over night. This recipe uses a pressure cooker. You'll need to adjust the cooking time if you use a standard soup pot.
Although this recipe uses chicken broth, you can make this vegan by substituting water or vegetable broth for the chicken broth.

Has a kick to it!

This salad is a great side or a wonderful main dish on a hot day!

A great way to get protien and taste for the very tight budget
