Ingredients
- 3 large reduced-sodium black olives
- 1/3 cup no salt added, canned chickpeas
- 1/2 cup frozen or fresh bell pepper and onion strips
- 1/2 tablespoons Mrs. Dash® Garlic & Herb seasoning blend
- 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 teaspoon extra virgin olive oil
- 1/8 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes (optional)
- 1 tablespoon whole milk ricotta cheese
- 1/2 cup coleslaw mix
Preparation
- Slice the black olives. Rinse the chickpeas.
- Layer all ingredients in the order listed in a 16-ounce glass jar.
- Refrigerate until ready to prepare and serve.
- Remove jar from refrigerator 15 minutes before ready to eat.
- Pour 5 ounces boiling water into the jar, close the lid and shake to combine. Let ingredients set in unopened jar for 2 minutes.
- Pour contents of jar into a deep, wide bowl. Enjoy!
Helpful hints
- If you use a wide-mouth jar you can eat the soup directly from the jar—no bowl needed.
- Serve with low-salt crackers or your favorite roll or bread.
- Reduced-sodium olives are available online if you do not find them in the grocery store.
- Whole milk ricotta cheese adds creaminess to the soup and is lower in sodium than low fat or skim ricotta cheese.
- For an extra flavor boost, add a dollop of pesto. See the DaVita Basil Pesto recipe.
