A Recipe for
Bacon & Bean Soup
Nobody seems more obsessed by diet than our anti-materialistic, otherworldly, New Age spiritual types. But if the material world is merely illusion, an honest guru should be as content with Budweiser and bratwurst as with raw carrot juice, tofu and seaweed slime. |

Prep time: 25 minutes.
When the vegetables are finely chopped it takes only a short
simmering time to develop and blend the flavors 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.
