Have you ever had bean and bacon bit soup? I didn’t either until after I got married to my husband. His grandmother, a true hillbilly woman, puts on a pot of this every Thursday morning and by supper time it is ready and the entire extended family (including grandkids and great grandkids) gathers in her kitchen to enjoy the soup and each other’s company. I’m so grateful “Grandma” has shared this special recipe with me.

Be it for informal gatherings like this or just as a hearty lunch or a light dinner, you can’t beat a good pot of soup on a cold day. There are literally thousands of bean soup recipes for you to try. One of the things I like best about bean soup is that you can leave it simmering on the stove for a long time. It makes it the perfect meal for those nights when everybody seems to eat at a different time. You can also refrigerate and freeze these types of soups and just pull them out and reheat later. Most bean soups will last for a few days in the fridge and will keep for months in the freezer.
