Soup seasons meals

Soup is a comfort food that you can tailor to fit available cooking time. On a weekend, put a soup pot filled with dried lima beans and seasonings on a slow simmer to make an earthy tasting Lima Bean Soup, at right. On a week night, combine canned soup, vegetables and sausage to cook a pot of hearty Corn Bisque with Smoked Sausage that can be ready to eat in less than an hour.
