Bean, Potato and Sauerkraut Soup image

Raining 6 days straight here in the northeast and suddenly I'm thinking about warm comforting soups as a way to warm from the inside out. After pulling out one of my soup cookbooks and came across this one and decided to post it for the Zaar World Tour. You can make this vegetarian by omitting the prosciutto. I have not tried this one so please feel free to share your comments and sugeestions.

This soup is hearty and satisfying. The beans, potatoes, and sauerkraut give it a great texture and flavor. I added a bit of smoked sausage to mine for some extra flavor. It was a hit with my family!
