White Bean, Cabbage, and Andouille Soup great soup to warm you up during the cold winter months.
This white bean, cabbage, and andouille soup is one of my favorite soups. I am sure it will be a soup that I will be making numerousย times this winter.
Well, it is winter again. It is a little hard for me to believe that we got through the summer so quickly. But one of the things I love most about the colder weather is that all the comfort foods are back.
Soup is one of my all-time favorite comfort food. I try to make at least one batch of soup a week. It is great for my lunch at my day job. I love how soup can warm me up along with filling me up.
I love adding beans to soups. Here are some of the health benefits of eating beans:
- Beans are a great source for protein.
- Beans are rich in an antioxidantย called polyphenols.
- The healthy starches and fiber in beans can help with food cravings.
What type of beans should you use when making this white bean, cabbage, and andouille soup?
- Northern white beans
- Cannellini beans
- Navy beans
- Any of these will work fine in this soup. If you don’t want to use a white bean, black beans would work as well.

It’s rainy and cold over here…this is exactly what I would love now ๐
Looks absoluteky delicious !!!
Well, a good soup recipe sure comes in handy over here and this one looks so good. We don’t get andouille sausage, but we have plenty of Swedish sausages I can use. But, what you have in the image I can’t get here is those saltine crackers. Nope, none at all. I mean how can you really enjoy a bowl of soup without saltines. My solution is crusty sourdough bread, but you can’t crush the bread and put it on top you of your soup. Thanks for a great soup recipe.
It’s definitely soup season! We just made a bean and endive soup over the weekend using turkey stock from the Thanksgiving turkey. So good! I’m putting this soup on the agenda next. I love andouille…it brings so much flavor!
