Bean Soup (Aka Starving Student Minestrone)

"I came up with this one day when I was too sick to go to the store, so I just threw together what I had in the house. It turned out so well that I have made it again on other occasions. To make it even more nutritious, you could probably add canned vegetables as well. This is a good basic recipe that is very forgiving of experimentation."

I'm in that "thrifty by necessity" phase of life. I'm going to law school, and I'm always looking for inexpensive, quick, vegetarian recipes.
