I've spent years trying to find a good Campbells Bean & Bacon soup clone - - - this is it! Made as directed and it was good. Tweaked it just a bit by noting the following: to keep your beans from staying too hard, don't add salt or tomato sauce until beans are soft; I did the ole "boil the beans for a minute, let sit for an hour" thing with fine results; Used a mixture of navy, northern, and pinto beans; puree apx 1/3rd of soup to give it more consistency; Outstanding flavor - my thanks for the recipe !!!

This could have worked well but all those peppers was way too much for me. One maybe even a half of one would have been enough. Needs work. Read More

Very good and very flavorful! My 3 year old scarfed it down. The only thing that differed was the beans took forever to become tender but that always happens to me. Next time I will try it in the slow cooker. Thanks Buffy! Read More

When I cook for the homeless this recipe is easy and multiplies great! I usually make it with 10 lbs of dry pintos. I substitute turkey bacon and beef kielbasa for the bacon. Everyone loves this soup! Read More

This recipe is great! I left out the cilantro and jalapeno for milder palates. It reminded me of my favorite "canned" soup I had as a child. I made the recipe as stated except used canned white beans instead of soaking and cooking the pintos. It was good just a little too salty. Next time I used low-sodium broth bacon tomato sauce and beans. What a wonderful recipe!!! Read More

I was skeptical that a recipe with such basic ingredients would be any good but this soup is delicious! I didn't add the tomatoes until the end when the beans were soft. I made a 1/4 recipe and only used one large pepper but it was plenty spicy. Thanks! Read More

(7) 1. This soup was absolutely delicious! 2. When I made this I used 5 cups chicken stock almost 2 cups of beans a whole large jalepeno half a package of bacon and almost a whole large can of tomato sauce. This turned out WAY too spicy. It also was not meaty enough and a bit watery. The beans also didn't cook in time advertised in the recipe. Read More
