    I added a cup of water to the 2 and 3/4 water. I used one can of both kinds of beans. Think it would be better with more vegetables. It takes a long time to cut the vegetables. It tastes good and the serving size is large and filling. I do want to know something. Another recipe asks for seedless canned tomatoes. Do they carry them anywhere?
