In the health food or soup department of your local super market, you may find a package of 5/6 different variety of beans. If not there, then a local Health Food Store.
This picture is a great example of the beans that I use. You can order this at:

To make the soup, is a two day process. First, rinse the beans really well, in cold water, then cover them with cold water and let them soak overnight.
Ingredients:
Chopped Onion
Chopped 2 stalks of Celery
Chopped 2 carrots
2 cloves of garlic
Coconut Oil
Package of Beans
1/2 cup of Lentils (rinsed and set aside)
2 containers of low sodium vegetable stock
Tamari, pepper, Worcestershire Sauce, Balsamic Vinegar, Basil, Thyme, Chopped Fresh Parsley (add at the end), red pepper flakes. I like to add some grain mustard and lime juice, too.
The morning of the next day:
Saute' the Trinity (chopped onions, celery and carrots) and garlic in the coconut oil. When tender, add the remaining seasonings (add additional seasonings after you add the stock). Add the Vegetable Stock, bring to a boil, Add the beans and lentils, simmer for about 1-2 hours, or until the beans are tender.
Serve with rice & salad, great healthy and full meal!
