Tips

  • Top with grated parmesan cheese or a drizzle of olive oil for extra richness.
  • One pound of loose sausage can be added to this recipe. If using sausage, it is recommended to decrease to 2 cans of beans and brown the sausage in a pan with the onions & other ingredients prior to the crockpot.
  • If a creamier soup is desired, mash some of the beans against the pot and mix well (or separate and blend using an immersion blender).
  • This recipe is excellent for meal prep because the flavor deepens as it is stored.
