This traditional recipe is really scrumptious. Once you've attempted it, you'll never return to the canned (but classic) Bean and Bacon Soup. This soup is easily the most warming and comforting dish for everyone on the cold winter day. Also it's simple to make. The beans do need to soak to have an hour before you begin making the soup, so use that point to prepare the bacon and make preparations and prepare the vegetables.
Serve having a pan of warm cornbread away from the oven for any scrumptious meal. For any crockpot form of this recipe, see Slow Oven Bean and Bacon Soup .
