Ruby Swiss Chard and White Bean Soup

Total Time
30 mins

We like the robust flavor of red Swiss chard in this soup recipe from Sunset reader Juliet Grossman, of Temecula, California. You could also make it with green Swiss chard, which is milder, or spinach.

This recipe, and others like it, can be found in the article “Make These Fall Soups for Instant Comfort.”
