Ingredients 6 items

1 tablespoon Olive oil
1 clove crushed garlic
5 cups Water or 1250 ml
1 sachet MAGGI Spring Season Soup
1 cup Red canned kidney beans or 160 g drained
1 cup or 100 g readymade cheese tortellini

How to prepare

Warm olive oil in a large saucepan, add and cook the garlic over medium heat for 1 minute or until fragrant.
Add water and MAGGI Spring Season Soup. Bring to boil and simmer for 5 minutes with occasional stirring.
Add kidney beans and cheese tortellini. Simmer for 5 minutes with constant stirring until tortellini is cooked.

Always keep a can of red kidney beans in your cupboard! This way if you haven't soaked dried kidney beans overnight, you can incorporate the canned variety directly in your recipes. But remember to wash them with water to remove the extra salt!

What's so special about red kidney beans?

They're not only colorful and yummy, but red kidney beans are also very rich in proteins and fiber, iron, zinc, phosphorous, potassium and magnesium!
