Sausage Bean Soup

A hearty bowl of YUM! We forget every year how much we all love this soup until we take the first bite. This is not one of my healthy-watching points-getting into those size 8's kind of meals, but heck, we all need some comfort food now and then. An added bonus.....it's super quick!

Ingredients:

1 lb sausage ( I prefer Tennessee Farm, but go with what you like)
1 medium onion (diced)
1 can diced tomatoes (undrained)
1 can beef broth (weird combo with pork, I know, but it works!)
1 can navy beans (drained and rinsed)
1 can black beans (drained and rinsed)
1t dried basil
1 clove garlic (minced)
1/4 c Parmesan cheese

Directions:

Brown sausage and onion in a large pot, a dutch oven would do. Drain well. Pour back into the pot and add all other ingredients. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer 10 minutes. Ladle it up, toss a corn muffin on the side, grab a glass of sweet tea and chow down.
