1.	Try other flavours of HEINZ Beans. The Brown Sugar & Bacon and the Original Beans in Tomato Sauce are both great.
2.	Replace vegetable broth with chicken broth.
3.	Add a drizzle of sour cream or maple syrup for a nice finishing touch.
4.	For a creamier soup, stir in 1 cup (250 mL) cream.
5.	Prepare a day ahead for convenience. It will thicken on standing so thin with additional broth to desired consistency.
