Bean and Bacon Soup

When I was little this was the soup I always wanted when I did not feel good. I had a sick little one this morning so it seems to fitting that this soup was on my menu. I have made several recipes of this soup, but I never found one I really like. So I played around this morning and the soup was a HIT. I think this will be our new Bean and Bacon soup recipe
