Winter White Bean and Italian Sausage Soup

This is the perfect soup for those chilly days that come around. You know the ones when Mother Nature can’t decide if she will let Spring happen or leave Winter for a few more days.

This soup is also perfect for those Fall days before Winter hits. Of course, since I love Soup, I enjoy making this Pot of Soup year-round.

My family loves all the flavors combined in this soup. I like it because it can be a versatile soup. This means that I could switch up a couple of items in the soup and make it seem like a whole different soup.

I enjoy meals that I can use for a couple of days. This is one of those recipes.
