Menno Bean Soup
From recipesrule 16 years ago
- 60 minutes to make
- Serves 8
Here in Manitoba the days are already frosty and cold. No better way to warm up than with "old country" style bean soup, or Schaubel Sup as my folks called it. Add some homemade noodles and a splash of cream and it's a hearty meal. Read more Be sure you have lots of crusty bread for dunking! See less

How to make it
- Grab a stock pot, I think mines about 8L capacity, and put in your chicken broth and meat.
- Add onion,celery.garlic,bay leaf, peppercorns, savoury, red pepper flakes,and salt.
- Bring to a boil over med-high heat
- Add potatoes and bean/carrot mix
- Return to boil,then turn down to simmer.
- Simmer about 30 min til potatoes are done, or longer if you enjoy a long slow simmered soup.
- Add water if soup is getting too thick.
- My mom would always boil, then lightly saute some homemade noodles (kielke) and put them in the soup bowl before adding the soup. Finish off with a splash of half and half if desired. Serve with some nice crusty bread and butter. True comfort food!
