This recipe is attributed to Paula Deen, but I got it from another internet source. This soup has a bit of a sweet taste, so don't be surprised, but is a great, quick soup to make and delicious with some hot, crusty French bread.

Time 45m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

2 slices bacon, sliced 1/2-inch, pieces (I used venison bacon)
2 tablespoons margarine
1 garlic clove, minced
1 small onion, chopped fine
1 green pepper, chopped
2 (16 ounce) cans baked beans (I prefer Bush's or Allen's)
1/2 lb smoked sausage, cut into 1/4-inch, pieces, then cut in halves
1 cup half & half light cream

Steps:

  • Melt the margarine in a large saucepan, then fry the bacon pieces in it until just beginning to crisp.
  • Add the garlic, onion and green pepper. Cook until the veggies are wilted.
  • Gently stir in the beans and sausage, and simmer uncovered for about 15 minutes.
  • Stir in the half and half, and simmer about 10 more minutes.
