15 Bean Soup with Smoked Sausage for a cold winter day

[@sylviaaguirre8114]

I love making soup,, but I love leftover soup even better!

[@clarasnyder9946]

So do I. The flavors have melded together much better

[@gildavis8266]

Thanks for the ideal Karen! Believe, or not I have all those ingrediencies in my kitchen as I write. Including the stuff for cornbread to go with it.

[@tag7592]

Boy, this pot of soup looks so good! I've always been afraid to buy the bag of 15 beans for soup. Honestly, I was not comfortable, ever, to make it. I understand now, Karen, how to put it together. Thank goodness! Also, I was happy to hear you say that you don't always use all of your fresh garlic, and have had to throw it away. Me too. I hate to waste anything at all, especially food. Too many hungry people in this world, tragically. Thanks Karen! Blessings to you ❤

[@KarenJonesFoodFamily]

Thank you. Loves and hugs ❤️

Thank you so much. We had 6 confirmed deaths from this weather. We were lucky, the tornado dissipated before it got to my neighborhood. Others were not so lucky. ❤️

I have done this for years. I wash my beans good and put them in a pot on the stove bring to boil add a tablespoon of soda let cook about 5-7 min drain and rinse good and and then the pan and start over it cooks the bean in half the time with out soaking first. I’m 84 and have cooked lots of beans.Laura

Gm Karen I absolutely love bean soups , I’m a southern girl and grew up having this and cornbread in all kinds of ways. I enjoy cooking and my neighbors and family love it to,Lol I’m going to trie this your way but I’m thinking to add some spinach leaves. Will see Love your video and your great ! Have a wonderful blessed Monday. Can’t wait what your going to make next

[@KarenJonesFoodFamily]

Thank you. I think spinach would be a great addition. You could add carrots, a few potatoes at the end, or a few macaroni noodles. ❤️😋

[@princecatstarr102]

I was so happy when they started putting tomato paste in a tube....I use the minced garlic in a jar as well, it's so convenient and much less waste. My hubby will love this recipe....thanks Karen. It's cold here too and a perfect time to try this. Love, Hugs and Blessings.

[@texasstardust6010]

I always make Cornbread, to go with almost any kind of Bean Soup/ Potato Soup, / Chili / Chicken Noodle Soup.... I love Cornbread, my Grandmothers recipe . That soup looks sooooo good, Miss Karen. I often add celery and carrots to my Bean Soups, along with the onion. I also love serving Chili over Cornbread, top with your choice of shredded Cheese, some finely chopped onion... delicious. You enjoy your day, you and " Mr. Pops " , that's so sweet ,the ' pet names '. It is such a good meal on a coldy day!

Miss Karen, I love this soup. I've used turkey smoked sausage which has less cholesterol and less sodium and is equally delicious. I share your concern about salt also. Surprised it's that cold in AL, thought down south you had much milder winters......thanks for this marvelous recipe! Regards from CT

I love turkey sausage as well. Sometimes we have very cold weather but it doesn't last long. 😉❤️

That was my dads favorite meal especially after a holiday so I could cook the ham bone. Lol He passed away a few months ago so, it’s been rough cooking his favorite meals. ❤️

I have mastered homemade split pea soup and lentil soup. Next on the list is cabbage soup and maybe this. I love me some kielbasa by itself and I will bet that it's delicious with all the other flavors in that soup. Gotta eat soup here in the winter before the warm weather comes round again.

I like to hear others call them dish rags. When I was newly married, my M-I-L got so insulted when I called them that. She said, "My dish cloths ARE NOT RAGS!" I could never get her to understand that's what we call them in the South. Good grief, she's from the hills of West Virginia, not New York City!

I’ve actually never made 15 bean soup. What does it taste like??? Does it have a pinto bean flavor or what. I love beans so they’ve got to be good. Great to see you. I waited to watch you today (Saturday) I’m at work until 3:00. It’s okay… it’s my business and customers won’t be coming in before 10:00 am. That soup is gorgeous… You have a great weekend. 🙏🏻♥️🙏🏻I’d love to see you and your beautiful daughter in law make these Philly cheese steak egg rolls I’m making this evening when I get home. I love watching you two together. ❤

@@KarenJonesFoodFamily I own a vapor store . My husband and I were heavy smokers for a lot of years. We tried everything to quit, even being hypnotized. Nothing worked until we tried vaping. A lot of people are against it but it worked from day one for us. We haven’t touched a cigarette in 9 years. Please don’t believe everything you hear about vaping. 99% of what the critics say isn’t true. Even my doctor said it’s 100% safer than cigarettes. I will email you the information for the egg rolls. ♥️♥️♥️
