When the vegetables are finely chopped it takes only a short simmering time to develop and blend the flavors of the bacon and assorted winter vegetables.
The beans add character and a heartiness that is satisfying.
And an added plus - the soup is better a day or two after it is made.
Store it in a covered container in the refrigerator.
