- 3 cups dry 10 bean soup mix - I get mine from Sprouts in their bulk dept.
- 2 carrots diced
- 1 1/2 onions diced
- 3 stalks celery diced
- 1 tbl. minced garlic
- 1 tbl. ground pepper
- 1 ham hock Substitute any left over ham you have
- salt to taste
Put all in large pot. Cover with about 1 1/2 inch of water and bring to a boil. Lower heat and simmer 3 to 5 hours until beans are tender. (Check often to make sure you still have plenty of water. As the beans cook and absorb the water, you will need to add more. Should be soupy, not dry) When beans are done, remove ham from the hock, dice and mix in soup.
Serve with hot bread for a fabulous 1 dish meal.
- If cooking in Crock Pot - follow same directions, turn on high and cook for 6 hours or until beans are totally tender.
