Russian Bean and Potato Soup image

I got this from vegetarian times. It is one of my favourite stews, especially when it gets cold out. When you serve it I generally add a little more sour cream and I always add a lot of sauerkraut. You can also add nonfat yoghurt. It is really good with a piece of sourdough bread and a salad. It also freezes well after being refrigerated.
