I didn't have fresh tomatoes on hand so I used a can of diced tomatoes with green chilies and one without. This added an extra zip to the flavor which we preferred. I also used "Better Than Bouillon" for the broth, it's so much better and healthier for you. Love the flavors.

Moved recently from Florida to the Midwest. Needed some cold weather recipes for comfort food. This hit the spot. Easy and inexpensive to prepare. Loaded with flavor. Family favorite.

This has become one of our favorite soups! It's very cheap to make too. Sometimes instead of adding the ham later I cook a couple of ham hocks in with the beans and bouillon and then just cut the meat off of it. I've never had the Disney version but if it's half as good as this recipe I imagine it's incredibly popular at the restaurant.
