2 slices bacon, diced

1 celery rib, chopped
1 medium green pepper, chopped
3 garlic cloves, minced
1/4 lb tasso ham, diced (If this is not available diced ham pieces can be used.)

This is my new favorite soup! It's so flavorful and comforting. I've already made it twice this week.

I followed the recipe exactly, but my soup turned out bland. I think I needed to add more salt and pepper.

This soup is so easy to make, and it's packed with flavor. I love the combination of spices. I served it with a side of cornbread, and it was the perfect meal for a cold night.

I'm not a big fan of spicy food, but this soup was surprisingly mild. The flavor was great, and the beans were cooked perfectly. I'll definitely be making this again!

Cajun-style white bean soup is a quick, easy, and delicious meal! I made it last night and my family loved it. The soup was creamy and flavorful, with just the right amount of spice. I used spicy Italian sausage, but you could use any type of sausage
