1

DIRECTIONS

In large pot, fry bacon until crisp. (I chop bacon into bits and stir often while it's browning. Also, I just leave the bits in while the veggies cook and omit the crumbling step at the end. :)).
Remove bacon strips and cook garlic, onion, carrots, and celery in hot bacon drippings 'til softened.
Add beans and broth to veggies. Heat until simmering.
Stir in pepper and cumin. Crumble bacon into pot. If using homemade broth, you will probably need to add salt, to taste.
This is great served with cornbread!
