SolBe Families,

What do we do with all those canned goods that we stocked up on last month? Here is another recipe, which uses the cans in your pantry to a create protein- and fiber-rich meal! Who doesn’t love a meal that costs less than five bucks, takes less than 10 minutes to prepare, and lasts for a week in the fridge?

Quickest Creamiest Tomato Soup 

  • 1 Can tomatoes 
  • 1 Can chickpeas (strained and rinsed)
  • ½ Cup hot water 
  • Pinch of cayenne pepper or red chili flakes 
  • ½ Tsp sea salt 

 

In your blender, add chickpeas and tomatoes.  

Blend on low, gradually add hot water, then spices. Let blend for 1 minute, (it feels like a long time, but trust me).  

Add to a saucepan, season with cayenne pepper or salt. 

 Eat as a soup OR a fiber and protein-rich sauce for your favorite pasta! 

Enjoy!

Be well and stay healthy!

The SolBe Team


Be Supported

We’ve felt the uncertainty that occurs when our children are in the care of someone else. At SolBe, we know you will always be your child’s first teacher; we’re here as a knowledgeable partner in your child’s education.

From our experience, children rise to the intellectual life of those around them, so we are committed to growing as individuals and as a team. You can count on us to provide a warm and engaging learning experience for your little one.

Be Inspired

We’ve spent thousands of hours in classrooms that either overstimulate, underwhelm, or actively prevent educators from delivering the highest-quality education and care. At SolBe, you’ll go beyond the traditional four-walled classroom.

Our award-winning, inventive and uplifting learning spaces stimulate the senses and instill feelings of home-like safety and comfort. They allow for your child’s, and our educators’, changing needs and emotions. They create room for wonder—for learning, and living, outside the lines.

Be Immersed

We’ve seen what’s lost when things are done the way they’ve always been done before. SolBe is an adaptive Spanish exposure program that refuses to accept the status quo.

Our inventive practices grow from the shoulders of giants, with roots in the Reggio Emilia approach, the Montessori method, and well-researched cognitive disciplines that attend to the whole child. We create opportunities to develop character attributes that your child will benefit from for a lifetime. Collaboration. Communication. Independence. Healthy risk-taking. Critical thinking. Emotional awareness. Resilience. Intellectual curiosity. Creative innovation. An authentic love of life and learning.

Be Well

We know what it’s like to forget to feed ourselves—physically, mentally, and emotionally. At SolBe, we understand it’s impossible for you to pour from an empty cup. And we do what we can to keep your cup full.

Our learning ecosystem is designed with children and educators—and you—in mind. Seed-to-table nutrition program. Yoga and mindfulness. An all-inclusive experience so you don’t need to worry about finding time to provide meals, diapers, or wipes (unless you want to). Evening and weekend family programs.
