Pam, this soup is one of my favorite LDL soups. I have doubled the recipe but used black beans and navy beans for the extra two cans. Roasted tomatoes with garlic is really good, too.

Re: Loerita's Quick Bean Soup
Pam,
I also forgot to tell you that CodingQueen posted a recipe using this recipe as the base. It's called "Fire Roasted Tomatoes with Beans and Okra." Her son is the one that actually took the original recipe and came up with the recipe she posted. He has since changed the recipe by using a sweet yellow bell pepper for the green when he uses okra. He said that it needed more color. I guess that's just the artist in him coming out. The last time I went over to her house, he'd substituted corn in place of the okra but used a green pepper. He's all into color. He's actually an awesome cook. He worked at a number of restaurants while putting himself through college to become an engineer. He's definitely going to make some girl very happy one day because she won't have to cook.

Re: Loerita's Quick Bean Soup
This was my main soup when I started, because it is so convenient and filling. I changed beans around, and sometimes I added a can of corn. It is great. glad to have all you newbies. Joyful Friend

Re: Loerita's Quick Bean Soup
I love this soup because it's not written in stone that you have to use northern beans and pinto beans. I often will use whatever I have on hand....black beans, white beans..etc. and it doesn't take long to cook. The recipe that my son makes takes much longer because you have to chop all the vegetables....that's why he cooks...I don't like to take the time...
