This is a favorite at the farmhouse. We have it almost every week during the winter months. It is super easy to make, fiber-rich, economical, and is great packed in a thermos for lunch. Serve it with organic tortilla chips and a dollop of lowfat sour cream (we are loving the Smart Start sour cream these days) - delicious!
