2 ½ tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
13 ounces linguica sausage, use the hot rather than the mild, sliced into rounds 1/4 inch thick
12 small yellow onion, chopped kind of finely
1 ½ teaspoons garlic, minced
2 carrots, peeled, quartered and chopped
¾ cup celery, chopped (I use the top leaf and all)
¾ cup cilantro, chopped (I use stem and leafs)
1 ½ teaspoons salt, divided
1 teaspoon black pepper
½ teaspoon chili pepper flakes
2 dashes Tabasco sauce
1 (14 ounce) can chicken broth, low sodium
1 (15 ounce) can white beans
1 (15 ounce) can butter beans
1 (15 ounce) can black beans

1
In large soup pot, sweat over medium heat linguica, onions, garlic, carrot, celery and cilantro with 1 tsp salt and pepper, adding in chili pepper flakes and tabasco.
2
Once onions are translucent add in remaining ingredients.
3
Allow to cook until carrots are cooked through but not mushy.
4
Okay your soup is ready to serve at this point.
5
If by chance you find you aren't quite ready for dinner lower heat to very low and allow to simmer up to another 15 minutes, and adjust seasonings to you liking.
6
I usually wind up having to add the other 1/2 tsp salt, but otherwise this is plenty spicy enough for my family.
