Monday Munchies: Bean and Kielbasa Soup

This soup is delish! It originally came from my dear friend Michele and it fast became a family and guest favorite! I usually serve this with my sweet corn bread and a mix of pickles!  Hope you enjoy!

Bean and Kielbasa Soup

 

1 pkg beef Kielbasa, sliced in rounds

2 - 14.5 oz can kidney beans

2 - 14.5 oz can black beans

2 - 14.5 oz can butter beans

2 - 14.5 oz can garbanzo beans

salsa (enough to fill one empty bean can)

1/2 bunch cilantro, chopped

 

This can be either an all day crock pot soup or a quick 1hr. cook in a stock pot on the stove.  Add all the ingredients to your crock pot or stock pot and cook accordingly .... its that simple...and delicious!

 

 

Note: The original recipe called for only 1 can of butter beans and 1 can of pinto beans.  Over time we have come to love 2 cans of butter beans instead.  This recipe is so flexible you can do what you please with it and it is still delicious!
