A Twist On Pork & Bean Soup!

This is a soup that I really like to make, but I don't really have a good name for it!
1 pkg country style boneless Pork
1 medium Yellow Onion
2 cloves of Garlic
2 medium Carrots
1 small Red Pepper
1 medium Jalapeño Pepper
1 can Cannellini Beans
some fresh Sage and Rosemary
1 pkg (8 oz) of Baby Spinach
Olive Oil
Chicken Stock
Kosher Salt
Black Pepper (fresh to grind)

I start by browning a little pork (county style, or boneless ribs) in some olive oil and then add in a finely diced onion and garlic.  Simmer for a few minutes and then add chicken stock with carrots, and red pepper, and this time I had a jalapeño to dice and add in, too.  Then a can of cannellini beans (with broth).  Lastly, some fresh sage and rosemary and let simmer for a good 30 minutes adding a little salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste.  Finally, I add baby spinach and cover turning the heat off and just letting it all steep for another 20 minutes of so. Yum Yum,

  1. Put it in my recipe program. Will leave out the spinach as I don't care much for it. Thank you!

  2. Chris,

    I have to say that the spinach adds a special element to the whole. But you could also use Kale or even cabbage to great culinary and health effect! Bon Apetit, mon ami!
