Sausage Spinach Bean Soup
This soup is so perfect on a cold and rainy day like today. I love the hearty flavor and between the sausage and the beans it’s a filling meal. Just add some biscuits or a slice of homemade bread.
The recipe is great for using up leftover beans. In fact, I make sure I have enough to be able to throw together this quick dish the next day. It’s an easy way to cook once and eat twice. I make a big pot of beans one day and serve them with cornbread and then use the leftovers in a yummy pot of soup like this the next day.
