White Bean and Sausage Soup

My friend Erica has said that this soup has healing powers.  I’m not sure I’ll claim that, but it does have a certain je ne sais quoi for something that seems so simple.  If you’re lucky to have a good butcher nearby with smoked sausages, use those.  I love to get smoked sausages and hot links locally at Bill Kamp’s Meat Market.
