Wow. Both my husband (who hates both beans and soup) and my toddler (who never eats anything) loved this. Before I added the bacon (I cooked it separately) I took some out and mashed it up for my 8 month old and she ate more than average too. Definitely going to become a common dish for us.
I forgot to add the tomato sauce until my toddler was already eating it (oops). So if you don't have tomato sauce, just skip it. It'll be good either way.
Also I used about a tsp smoked paprika so that we didn't have to use smoked bacon.
Oh also I used a lb of dried beans that I had cooked before hand. Not sure if that's about 3 cans or not, but it was the perfect amount.
