not the same old bean soup
This quick and easy to make soup tastes great but it is so much better after it has had a day or two to sit, covered in the fridge. This allows all the great flavors to mingle and mesh. Please Note: When using dried white beans, wash first and soak overnight to soften; then rinse. Now they are ready to use.
