This is a very good and very comforting soup on a cold winter night. Any combination of dried beans will do. I try to use as many as possible for the bigger variety of flavors. This is a soup my Aunt Maggie made for me over 40 years ago when I was a little girl who enjoyed spending time with Aunt Maggie and Uncle Denny in Dayton, Ohio, long before my days as a Texas girl.

It's a good soup. Did you really mean to boil the beans for 3 hours? I only did a simmer.
