NEIGHBORHOOD BEAN SOUP
Even though I'm single, I make multiple servings of everything. Actually, this tendency has helped me to get to know my neighbors. A few of them always volunteer to be my guinea pigs whenever I try out a new recipe or two. -Cheryl Trowbridge, Windsor, Ontario

NEIGHBORHOOD HAM AND BEAN SOUP
The flavors in this bean soup remind me of the bean soup my grandmother used to make on our farm in Ohio when I was a young girl. I love to make it during the winter months -- it doesn't last long. My daughter is now making it for her family as well. Maybe it's called "Neighborhood" bean soup because the neighbors love it when I make it -- it's a wonderful soup to share with special friends. It is great served wtih a nice piece of hot corn bread. I can't remember exactly where I found the recipe -- but I'm glad I have it and I hope you will feel the same.

NEIGHBORHOOD BEAN SOUP
This is absolutely delicious even though I used pinto beans instead of great northern. I put some ham in mine and used a lot of extra carrot and celery plus threw in some parsley. It has great flavor and is easy to prepare. Recipe courtesy of Taste of Home December/January 2012 and Cheryl Trowbridge of Windsor, Ontario.
