Bread and Bean Soup

Directions

1. 1
   Bake stale bread 10 minutes at 300 to give it a crunch.
2. 2
   Heat up stock over medium flame.
3. 3
   Add beans to boil.
4. 4
   Meanwhile, saute onion, pepper, and garlic in oil until the onion is golden and beginning to blacken.
5. 5
   Stir the vegetables into the beans and stock.
6. 6
   Add spices to taste.
7. 7
   Let simmer for a few minutes.
8. 8
   Stir in bread and let set to soak up some moisture.
9. 9
   Before serving, you might want to add some extra water (because the bread will have sopped up most of the stock).
