A cold winter has arrived, and to warm up these chilly days, I'll teach you how to make a simple and quick bean stew with bacon and sausage. I always like to bring back those old recipes from my grandmother's time, as I know everyone enjoys them. And this recipe is one of the ones that reminds me of my childhood, as my mother always made it at home when the cold arrived. The bean stew with bacon is one of the simplest soup recipes, as there's no secret ingredient, and if you want to add a touch, you can add your favorite seasoning and other ingredients. Here, I'll teach you the traditional recipe for bean stew with bacon, and I'm sure you'll want to make it today and enjoy the flavor. Another tip is that this is a homemade recipe, and I don't use any industrial ingredients, it's all natural, so if you prefer to use industrial seasonings, feel free to do so. But in my opinion, the bean stew with bacon tastes better with natural seasonings.
