This is hands-down the most delicious roasted red pepper soup. It’s perfectly balanced by sweet carrots and savory leeks — no acidity from tomatoes and no heaviness from potatoes. Just a subtle sweetness, layered aromatics, and a silky texture that feels indulgent, but isn’t.

At 4Q Method, we believe eating to lose weight shouldn’t be boring, but green beans can be a boring vegetable. So, we’ve given them a makeover with this recipe to amp up the flavor without amping up the calories. (I know - we don’t really use that word here, but it’s true!)

These green beans are bursting with umami from the soy sauce, sesame oil, ginger and garlic. Even if you’re not a fan of green beans, you will be after you try this — trust us!
