Gazpacho with Garbanzo Beans - 28g Carbs, 9g Fiber

From: Mayo Clinic

Dietitian's tip: The variation on this traditional cold Spanish soup
adds garbanzo beans, which more than doubles the fiber content —
4 grams fiber without, 9 grams fiber with the added garbanzo beans.
Serves: 6

1 (15 oz can) garbanzo beans, rinsed and drained
6 cups unsalted vegetable juice
1 cup cherry tomatoes, quartered
1/2 cup cucumber, chopped, seeded
1/4 cup red onion, chopped
1/4 cup cilantro OR parsley, chopped fresh
1/4 tsp hot pepper sauce
1 to 3 garlic cloves, minced
1/4 cup lime juice
6 lime wedges

In a large bowl, add the beans, vegetable juice, tomatoes, cucumber,
onion, cilantro, hot pepper sauce, garlic and lime juice. Stir well.
Cover and place in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour or until well
chilled.

To serve, ladle the cold soup into chilled individual bowls and garnish
with a lime wedge. Serve immediately.
