Is there any dish that receives a lot of compliments and positive feedback maybe more than you feel it deserves.
Well, this bean soup is one of those dishes on my list.
For some reason Terry loves this white bean soup, and it’s one of a few things he makes a specific request for.
I agree that this soup is pretty tasty, but I also feel a bit guilty because it’s so easy to make!
But hey, I’m happy he likes this soup and not some kind of elaborate dish that would take days to prepare (lol).

I love to experiment all different spices, and just looking at the spice section in any store makes me happy (lol).
If I remember it right, I found this paprika at World Market.
The reason I came home with it?
The design and the color of the tin.
I don’t know where paprika is usually made but “Hungarian” paprika sounds good too, doesn’t it?
