EXPERT TIPS

Expert Tips

Sliced cooked sausage can be used in place of the ham.

Although you can purchase deli ham and dice it at home, you can also purchase a package of diced ham as a great time-saver.

This fragrant bean soup is perfect fare for a chilly winter evening. Serve with slices of a crusty French baguette and a warm cherry crisp for dessert.

I luvd the intentions of this creative soup. I don't and hate to critize other cooks receipes its not necessary & unfounded. I do however, like to put my own spin on things if I feel I need to add as I am a big herb person having my own garden I do so. Again, however, it is a good soup. I most of the time I make my own creations by experminations. Instead of "It was Blah", tryed it, it was good, however I added my own touch to to it. COOK ON....Peace

I made this recipe twice this past weekend! Once for my 90 year old foster mom and she really enjoyed it. I used carrot shreds instead of the carrot slices. I made this first one with Johnsonville Italian 3 Cheese Chicken sausage. Restaurant quality results. The second one I made for the waitresses at our local Pitt Grill. I made this one with turkey sausage and it was very good. This soup will freeze well - if you have left overs. Your house will smell wonderful when you walk in after errands, work or just doing chores.

My whole family including picky kids enjoyed this recipe. I omitted extra salt and used a lower sodium chicken broth and it was salty enough. I also substitued cubed turkey ham for traditional ham and no one noticed. The only thing I would do different next time is use my food processor to make the vegetables less chunky.
