EASY PORTUGUESE-STYLE BEAN SOUP
One day I was looking at Portuguese recipes and decided to put together a bean soup that embraced the bright and spicy flavors of Portugal. My family liked it so much, it became a classic in our household. To save time and work, the sausage, vegetables and herbs can all be prepped in minutes with a food processor. -Steven Vance, Woodland, Washington

Thank You Aunt Alta, this is her recipe. It is one of those make in the morning and let it cook all day or do the day ahead. Works well to make ahead and reheat in a crock pot to the picnic.
