Have you heard of a dish called “greens and beans”? This Green Bean and Macaroni Soup is greens and two kinds of beans – green beans and cannellini beans. And some macaroni pasta for good measure. It’s an easy dish to make. You don’t even need your knife and cutting board if you buy the already-sliced mushrooms. Sounds like a busy-night meal to us!
