     Title: Bacon & Bean Soup
Categories: Soups, Pork, Beans, Vegetables, Beef
     Yield: 8 Servings

     3 sl Back bacon
     3    Ribs celery; chopped
     2 md Carrots; chopped
     1 md Onion; chopped
     1 c  Chopped turnip (opt)
     3 c  Beef broth
     1    Bay leaf
   1/2 ts Thyme
    19 oz Can Navy OR pinto beans
          - drained and rinsed

 Prep time: 25 minutes.

 When the vegetables are finely chopped it takes only a
 short simmering time to develop and blend the flavours
 of the bacon and assorted winter vegetables. The beans
 add character and a heartiness that is satisfying.

 And an added plus - the soup is better a day or two
 after it is made. Store it in a covered container in
 the refrigerator.

 Cut bacon into thin slivers. In a 12 cup saucepan,
 combine bacon, celery, carrots, onion, turnip, beef
 broth, bay leaf and thyme. Bring to a boil; reduce
 heat, cover and simmer for 15 minutes or until
 vegetables are tender. Add beans and continue to
 simmer 5-10 minutes or until hot, and flavors are
 blended. Remove the bay leaf and ladle into warm
 soup tureen or soup bowls.

 Makes 8 servings.
