Quick Bean and Bacon Soup image

I needed a quick dinner and had no idea what to make. So, I did some "scrounging " and came up with this very thick and hearty soup. If you would like to add more bacon and onion please feel free to add it. Some people call white beans " Great Northern ".Posted to Food.com (a.k.a. "ZAAR") on January 3rd. 2013.
