Hearty main dish soup for a cold winter day. Buy mixed dried beans in bulk - not prepackaged bean soup mix - and save a lot of money! Serve with sliced Italian bread. Ingredients:
12 ounces dry mixed beans |
1 1/2 pounds italian turkey sausage links |
1 (29 ounce) can diced tomatoes |
2 (14 ounce) cans chicken broth |
1 cup white wine |
1 red bell pepper, chopped |
1 onion, chopped |
2 stalks celery, chopped |
2 large carrots, chopped |
2 cups frozen green peas, thawed |
Directions:
1. Pick through and rinse beans. Place in a 4 quart pot, and cover with at least 2 inches of water. Bring to a boil for 2 to 3 minutes. Cover, and let stand in the refrigerator overnight.
2. Drain and rinse beans. Place beans in slow cooker with canned tomatoes, broth, white wine, and vegetables. Cover, and cook on low for 7 to 8 hours.
3. In a skillet, cook the sausage over medium heat until done. Slice links into 1/2 inch pieces. Add meat to slow cooker, and cook soup another 30 to 60 minutes.
