Ragin' Cajun' Bean Soup

The soup recipe was from one of those soup in a bag from a craft fair. The soup was pre- assembled with the beans, soup mixes, and dehydrated veggies. We added some fresh ingredients to make it a bit more fresh. The recipe makes a TON of soup, so plan for many nights of leftovers, and freeze a portion of it first.

Ingredients:
Soup Mix
We added the following:
Peppers, diced
Onions, diced
Celery, diced
garlic, chopped
1/2 pound Kielbasa, cooked
1 can diced tomatoes

Directions:
1) Rinse the bean mix with cold water, drain, add to crockpot and cover with water (7 cups).
2) Add spices and dehydrated veggies and cook for 9 hours on low.
3) Add fresh veggies, Kielbasa, and diced tomatoes, and cook for 1 more hour on low.

Wife Rating: A
This soup was definitely hearty and spicy. I could only eat a little bit at a time. ;) I really enjoyed the meat in the soup too!
