Bean & Veggie Soup

[blessedmom303]

Tonight is meatless night at our house.  Here is what I'm making

Brandie's Bean & veggie Soup

Chicken Broth (2 cans)

Water (1 to 2 cups)

1 lbs white beans dry (soaked over night)

2 celery ribs (chopped)

2 carrots (chopped)

4 potatoes (peeled & chopped)

1 small onion (chopped)

2 garlic cloves (minced)

1 Ham hock (optional)

Italian Seasoning, basil, thyme, rosemary, 2 bay leaves, salt and pepper to taste. ( I don't measure my seasoning I just add a little at a time till I get the taste I want)

1.) cook beans on stove top till soften

2.) Sweat out all the veggies

3.) place everything in the slow cooker for 4 to 6 hrs on high heat or 8 to 10 hrs on low heat.  

4.) Serve with a little grated cheese, crackers, or bread

Enjoy...

****This recipe also works well with lentils in place of the beans****
