Black bean soup with couscous! Packs light, excellent protein source, and cooks up fast with one round of boiling. I add dried parsley, garlic, salt, and pepper to the couscous. Flavor bonus: add a tablespoon of oil or pad of butter, finish with lime wedges for a bright hit of acid. I need to source dried bean flakes and will try making my own black bean soup mix. 🫘🌾🍋

Looks healthier than ramen. How much salt?
I’ve used those exact soups for years as a cheap substitute to overpriced freeze dried meals. No point in buying the expensive stuff at all with lots of options in the stores. However these days I don’t bother cooking and just buy ready to eat choices or pick something up from a restaurant I happen to pass by.
