QUICK AND EASY BAKED BEAN SOUP
I needed an easy way to use up some cans of baked beans (which I don't like as a side dish) so I came up with this soup. Tasty and speedy! I used some left over grilled pork loin and it was delicious. I imagine you could use ham, chicken or bacon with similar results.
