Very good and hearty. We had it for a side dish, but it could easily be a main dish. Will be making this one again!

This is a great recipe. We used dried beans soaked over night and added cubes of ham. This has to be the best bean soup we ever ate!

this was very good -- I made it in the crock pot - I cooked the onions in a frying pan and then put them in the crock pot with all of the other ingredients except for the spinach and cooked it about 8 hours on low. then, I added the spinach for the last 30 minutes. The house smelled great and it was really good with some roasted garlic bread! I think it would be exceptional with some sausage...

This recipe just didn't do anything for us. It was quite bland with the exception of the oregano. In fact, that's all we could taste. Simply blah.

I did not care for this. It smelled great when it was cooking but that's as far as it went. It was more like a stew than a soup, too.

Excellent!! My husband LOVED it - said it was the best soup he ever had. I substituted Red Kidney Beans for Garbanzo beans. I also added spinach at the end as others suggested. It was an easy recipe, but it took about an hour and 30 minutes to cook - give yourself enough time. Will definitely make this again and again.

Okay, I found this soup needed a kick. This sounds crazy, but try it: Chop up some sausage ( I used maple breakfast links) and cook in the oil. Follow the recipe as listed using the same oil. Towards the end, throw in a cup of tomato vodka sauce. It will add creaminess, and tomato and flavor to the soup. This was the best soup I ever made!!!

I would say that the soup was good. I added corn for some extra texture and also a little extra garlic.

Excellent soup, and easy to prepare. I added some diced turnip, as I like that in hearty soups.

This is by far the best bean soup I have made/eaten. Requires very little prep and tastes great immediately after making - with some recipes you don't necessarily get the full flavor until the next day. Not the case here. Highly recommended!

This soup is so good. I have made it many times. If I have some ham that needs to be used up I will throw it in also.

This one is definitely a keeper. I followed directly exactly except I used beef stock instead of chicken stock, and I didn't have any spinach in the house. We loved this soup. Very easy to make too.

Yummy and tasty. I soaked dried beans overnight in the crockpot, then drained them in the a.m. before adding all the extra stuff (which I had pre-cut and put in a baggy the night before). Added the water, a big can of chicken broth, and the dried herbs and viola! Delicious bean soup with hardly any effort at all! I cooked on low in the crockpot for about 11 hours.

I thought this soup was wonderful. It was great as it was but also lends itself to so many additions. You could add almost any meat that you want, for instance. It was incredibly easy to make as well. I even made it easier on myself by using canned spinach. I will be making this soup again, even though I have enough to freeze and save.

I substituted kidney beans for garbanzos, and left the skin on the potatoes. It turned out very well. I added a little Parmesan cheese on top as someone else suggested, and that made it even better.
