Smoked Sausage and Bean Soup

Ingredients

• 1 (28 ounce) can bean with bacon soup (such as Campbell’s)
• 1 (16 oz) ring smoked sausage, thinly sliced
• 2 (16 ounce) cans diced tomatoes
• 1/2 red onion, chopped
• 1 (4.5 ounce) can sliced mushrooms, drained (optional)
• 1 dash hot pepper sauce (such as Frank’s RedHot), or to taste (optional)

Directions

Pour bean with bacon soup into a large saucepan and cook over medium-low heat until warmed through, 5 to 7 minutes.

Stir tomatoes, sausage, onion, mushrooms, and hot sauce into the soup. Reduce heat to low and cook soup at a simmer, stirring occasionally, until the tomatoes are breaking down, about 1 hour.
