Incredible 20 Minute Bean Soup

Submitted by Snigiro

"I was served this at a luncheon, and could not believe it was so delicious and quick!! I will never make the old fashioned kind again! Hint: the soup gets better as it sets. Even better the next day. Serve with freshly baked/buttered rolls or bread. I usually make this about an hour before serving. Yummy Hope you like it."
