Italian Sausage and Bean Soup

At the end of January I posted 19 Soup Recipes to Warm You Up. I asked for your favorite recipes and several of you passed on good ones. This recipe was shared by Connie. It caught my eye for two reasons. 1) It uses Italian sausage and I have a freezer full of the stuff from my niece’s 4-H project. 2) It’s fast and easy.

The soup was delicious. I admit to being skeptical when I poured in the can of butter beans. I wasn’t too sure it looked good and I didn’t think my kids would eat it. I was wrong. The soup was wonderful and the kids loved it (except my child who hates all things sausage). My youngest, very picky son even loved the butter beans. The wonders never cease.

It’s not often that you can satisfy the pasta lovers, meat eaters and veggie people all with one dish. That’s what happened when I served this meal though. The recipe is adapted from a cookbook that my sister-in-law gave me. She is married to a career army man. When they were stationed in Schweinfurt, Germany (2007) she helped put together a cookbook with recipes from the families of those serving with the Vanguards 18th Infantry Regiment. That book is full of wonderful recipes, including this one.
