I was about to post this, since I have been making it for years, from one of the magazines - no longer remember which. I have tweaked it a tad, to use the entire pound of Italian sausage, and cannelloni beans instead of butter beans. While the recipe says "simmer for 10 minutes", I have found if you can just leave on VERY low simmer for an hour or more, all the flavors intensify - and I have not found it to be too thick. This and a grilled cheese sandwich make a filling and satisfying "supper" on a frosty winter night.

    Easy, tasty and very filling. Perfect for a cold winter's night with some crusty bread and a glass of red wine.

    I really liked the flavor of this soup. The beans added an extra 'heartiness' that seemed to be lacking in the pasta versions of sausage soup. I used sweet Italian sausage and roasted garlic (left over from another recipe). Another change that I made was to sub cannellini beans for the black beans (I thought I had black in the pantry, but...?). I added a handful of baby spinach and a dash of balsamic vinegar, as well. If I would have had some zucchini, I would have added slices of that, as well. My husband loved this served with crusty bread for an easy Sunday night supper. I will be making this again.

    This was very good. I did add a bay leaf, some worcestershire sauce, thyme, & oregano, oh and a dash of hotsauce. I think pasta would be a nice addition also. It is very quick and versatile, a good recipe to build on. Thanks for the posting
