Quick And Easy Baked Bean Soup - cooking recipe

Ingredients

1 tablespoon olive oil
1 large onion, chopped
2 medium carrots, chopped
4 stalks celery, chopped
1 teaspoon minced garlic
1 1 lb cooked ham, cubed or 1 lb bacon
2 (14 ounce) cans baked beans, undrained
1 (14 ounce) can chopped tomatoes
1 (14 ounce) can vegetable stock or 1 vegetable bouillon cube
2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
water, to desired consistency

Preparation

Heat oil in a large soup pot.
Fry onion, carrot, celery, garlic and meat for about 5 minutes, until tender.
Add the rest of the ingredients except extra water, and simmer for 20 minutes.
Add additional water to desired consistency. I liked mine more like a stew. You may like yours more soupy. It does thicken up!
Goes great with grilled cheese sandwiches or cornbread muffins.
