We enjoy this over Corn Bread with diced sweet Vidalia onions. YUM.

Thanks for the reminder, GG. The recipe I have is very similar to this. This soup is wonderful, freshly made or frozen and enjoyed later.

Had it in the Senate dining room back in 1967. They sold it in cans then to take home. Tasty!

Gracie, dear, when I worked at Bank of Boston, this soup was popular in the employee cafeteria.

On a related matter, is this why our senate is so full of “hot air?”

I make this after holidays when I have a leftover HoneyBaked ham bone. Yummy!

Henry, I believe you have nailed it about the Senate. Apparently, the House eats it also!

Properly named dish for the Senate. Bean Soup = to 100 old farts.

Sorry to Gracie and others - a bit off topic and a bit political. But...done.

Not offended, friend.

In all my years of working in the Senate, I never had the bean soup!

That could be a good thing.


Given that I think I personally would rather be known as a 'hasn't-bean'...than a 'has-bean.'

Is there a House Bean Soup recipe?
