Gazpacho with White Beans & Homemade Croutons

Protein: White beans

I've always loved gazapacho soup. My exercise instructor, Kim, recommended making this a meal by adding canellini beans. Brilliant!

Throw in a blender:
1 can chopped tomatoes
with
1 Tbsp. mayo and any combo of:
1/2 cucumber
1/2 onion
3-4 stalks celery
1 green bell pepper

After blended, add 1 cup cooked white beans (canellini or great northern work great)

Delicious with homemade croutons--(these also add fat that really makes this soup satisfying):
1. Toast bread
2. Cut toast into pieces
3. Sautee in a pan with olive oil and a mix of parmesan cheese and Italian seasonings (oregano, basil, a pinch of salt, pepper) until they look crispy and delcious
