If you love a cozy soup and a good pot of beans, why not combine the two? Whether you use dried or canned beans, these legumes add plenty of protein to vegetarian and meaty soups alike. What's more, beans like cannellini release some of their starches when you cook them, which helps to thicken and flavor your broth. Best of all, beans hold up well to freezing, so you can enjoy these soups for months to come. Here are 15 to try.
