Beans are a valuable store cupboard ingredient for hospital chefs. They are full of protein which is important for meat-eaters and vegetarians. This soup is soothing and has a non-spicy flavour which is important for menu balance.

All soups are good for one-hand eating which helps those who struggle to eat with both hands. Packed with flavour, why not serve with warm crusty bread?
