Just wanted to share another good crock pot receipe....its so easy!
1 lb dried navy beans
water
1 1b. meaty ham bones or ham pieces (I like neck bones)
1/2 cup chopped celery leaves
1 med onion, chopped
1 bay leaf (optional)
1 tsp salt
1/2 tsp pepper
Sort and wash beans; place beans in a large bowl. Cover with water. Place beans in a large bowl and let soak overnight.
Drain beans discarding water. Place beans in slow cooker and add 8 cups water, ham bones, celery leaves, onion, bay leaf, salt and pepper. Cover and cook on low 10-12 hrs.
This is a really good soup and freezes well.
Hugs, Tina
