AMAZING!!! This soup is delicious! The only con is how long it took to cook. But I will definitely make it again!

pkg. (10 oz.) frozen whole kernel corn

1/4

lb. (4 oz.) OSCAR MAYER Turkey Smoked Sausage, thinly sliced

Pepper

Make It

PLACE beans in large heavy saucepan. Add enough water to cover. Bring to boil. Cook on medium-low heat 2-1/2 hours or until beans are tender.

COOK bacon in large skillet on medium heat just until crispy, turning frequently. Drain on paper towels, reserving drippings in skillet; crumble bacon.

ADD bacon, corn, sausage and onion to beans in saucepan. Reduce heat to low; simmer 1 hour.

STIR flour into reserved bacon drippings in skillet. Cook on medium-low heat until bubbly, stirring frequently. Gradually stir in 1-1/2 cups water until well blended. Cook on medium heat until mixture boils and thickens, stirring constantly. Add to soup; simmer 30 minutes. Season to taste with pepper.

Kraft Kitchens Tips

Substitute

Substitute OSCAR MAYER Turkey Bacon for OSCAR MAYER Lower Sodium Bacon.

Shortcut

To reduce cooking time, use frozen lima beans instead of dried. Omit the initial 2-1/2 hour cook time. Add 3 pkg. (10 oz. each) frozen lima beans (about 6 cups) and 6 cups water to bacon mixture in saucepan. Continue as directed.

This is a wonderful meal to enjoy after having a fun filled day in the snow. I added a little rice, green pepper, a pinch or two of celery seed, fresh parsley,and made some biscuits on the side. Yummy for my tummy.

I used a short cut by using canned beans and instead of large limas, I used navy beans. Also put a little more sausage than the recipes called for. Loved it.

This was very good. I made it easier by putting everything (except the flour) in the crock pot and letting it cook all day, adding the sausage about an hour before I served. I think next time I will use ham instead of bacon because I wasn't wild about the texture of the bacon with the beans. I will definately make again.

This was an easy recipe to prepare. I added a little celery and one red potato (cubed). There was nothing left after dinner. It was very tasty. It is a great "stick to the ribs" recipe.

I used chicken broth instead of the water that was instructed AND I had a little Chipotle seasonings to spice it up a bit... I have made this twice since receiving this recipe online...

I would make this recipe again, but, with some changes. I would add another 2 slices of bacon, cut back to 20 oz. of frozen lima beans, and add a 1/2 pound of sausage. I will then see if I like it better than just "fair".

I sent this recipe to 4 people before I had gotten a chance to make it and we all loved it! Easy and fast and great with corn bread!
