This week was one of the best soups I have ever eaten. It was modeled after this recipe from The Saturday Evening Pot, but when it comes to soup recipes, I don't usually come all that close to the original.
Here are the changes that I made:
I did it on top of the stove instead of in the crock pot.
I used lovely speckled beans instead of white.
I used fresh-from-the-garden yellow tomatoes instead of canned red.
I added fresh sage, dried chillies and quite possibly a caterpillar or two that were clinging to the kale from our garden. I can't be sure and I don't necessarily recommend you doing this, though I suppose it will bump up the protein in your serving.
The next day I went out and bought more sausage to make sure that I had it on hand for the next time the mood strikes for this soup. It was seriously good. Happy footballing.

Oh my gosh, I would love a bowl of this soup while we watch the Chiefs lose today!
I just so happened to marry a man who LOVES soup. If it wasn't so expensive, I'd be getting him a subscription to the soup of the month club every year. :o)
The Kid loves soup too - split pea is his all-time favorite meal.
I've got a ham bone in the freezer - guess it's about time to bust out the beans!
My husband thoroughly enjoys a good bowl of soup. I find myself making it on Sundays too. It makes for an easy dinner about Tuesday! This looks wonderful. Right now we're into baseball On Sutton Place. Our beloved Detroit Tigers are in the hunt!
A great big bowl of your soup would be wonderful after the chilly night we had here in the midwest. Your food post pics are getting more and more delicious.
