I chose to try this recipe because Campbell's bean & bacon soup is one of my Dad's favorites, and also enjoyed by my husband. I made this recipe as written, didn't change a thing. It was Wonderful! I know that it would be equally as good using left-over ham, or just buying a chunk from the deli and cubing it. Thanks for posting this really quick, easy, hearty, and delicious soup. It is a keeper.

I don't really like Bean & Bacon soup.......but thought I would give this recipe a try because I see there was the addition of beef broth and water and veggies to tone down some of that bacony taste. Only half of the recipe was made to try it out.....I used kielbasa that wasn't heavily smoked (Mucke's Brand). The first mistake I made was to cut the recipe in half......it was so good and I didn't get my fill cuz I only made half a recipe. Well.....the next time, there will be no cutting of the recipe. I really enjoyed the soup.....its going into my permanent recipe file. Thank You for posting
