Italian Escarole & Bean Soup

This is a soup I first had up in Rochester at an Italian Market. Colleen was told about the place so Frank, Lia, and I went with Colleen and Andy in search of this market.  We all ordered some type of Italian sandwiches and when I was ordering my food I saw this "beans and greens" and thought it looked good. I first thought it was a side dish (and it can be made like that) but it really was a soup. It was really good and hearty.  I thought I'd find the recipe and make it at home.  It's the most simple soup I've ever made.  I also added some bacon to one bowl and that was really good.  I might just plant and grow some escarole this spring!
