Great hearty soup that is simple to make. You could add andouille sausage for a stronger flavor, but I like the mildness of the smoked sausage.

    Add the beans, water or chicken broth and the tomatoes. Stir to blend. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to medium-low and simmer uncovered for about 30 minutes, stirring occasionally.
