Recipe Summary Pinto Bean And Sausage Soup
The woman who owned and made the soups at my favorite deli was retiring. I asked her why, and she said, 'I'm an old lady, I'm tired of getting up early for work.' She gave me the recipe to one of my favorites. I made a few tweaks, it's DELICIOUS.Ingredients | Pinto Beans Australia Substitute1 ½ cups dried pinto beans1 tablespoon butter1 onion, chopped2 stalks celery, chopped½ teaspoon minced garlic2 (14 ounce) cans beef broth2 cups tomato juice2 tablespoons white sugar4 potatoes, diced2 carrots, diced¾ teaspoon dried oregano½ teaspoon salt¾ teaspoon ground black pepper1 (13 ounce) package smoked sausage½ cup chopped fresh parsleyDirectionsCover pinto beans with water in a bowl and allow to soak overnight.
