Sweet & Spicy Baked Bean Vegetable & Fruit Soup

This heat wave, high humidity and drought in Illinois has really been a nightmare. I can't remember ever feeling on a regular basis during the summer that I can't wait for the cold, snow & ice of winter to come back really soon. This is really out of character for me because I really dislike winter and always pine for a warm summer all winter long. I now think, that I should not think this way anymore during the winter, more like an oxymoron, "be careful what you wish for", you may get a wish you do not want or like to come true.

Typically during the hot & humid summers my go to foods have always been salads, smoothies, protein shakes, stir-frys, a wrap of protein with a corn tortilla, fruits, steamed veggies and some fish. Lately I have found some of that to be just to tasking and have now resorted to making soups in my Vitamix or Soups in my Dutch Oven, anything not to turn on my Oven to actually cook something.
