Such a simple recipe but absolutely delicious. I never liked runner beans before but now I can't get enough of them!

Made it for lunch. Didn't blend the soup and added half a tin of baked beans which had been languishing in the fridge. Scrummy. Looking forward to trying out your other recipes

Well to say i wasnt too optimistic on the flavour was an understatement, BUT omg this soup is absolutely scrummy yummy, and if you use less butter very low calorie, so ive made loads and frozen it!! I will be living on this throughout the winter!!
