An old friend gave me this recipe and it is so heart-warming in the cold, winter months. I think it is even more flavorful the next day and it's best made the day before serving. Leftovers freeze well.-Terri Lowe, Lumberton, Texas

FRENCH MARKET BEAN SOUP



French Market Bean Soup image

Winter is the perfect time for warming soups. I was given a version of this recipe many years ago, and it has become adapted and changed to make it a staple in our house at this time of year. For teacher gifts this year, I packaged the beans in a decorative bag, attached a tiny tabasco sauce, and the recipe. It was a hit!
