Bean Soup

JillJill

This goes great with grilled cheese sandwiches.

ingredients

  • 4 cups dried beans (a mixture of different kinds of beans works great)
  • 2 Tbsp. salt
  • 1 ham hock
  • 1 ball Bouquet Garni seasoning
  • 1 large can undrained tomatoes
  • 1 medium onion chopped
  • 6 stalks celery, sliced
  • 1/2 cup red wine
  • 1/4 chopped parsley

directions

Wash and drain the beans. In a large pot, add the beans, 3 quarts water, salt, Bouquet Garni, and ham hock. Simmer covered 2 1/2 hours. Add tomatoes, celery, and onion. Simmer uncovered 1 1/2 hours. Add wine and parsley.

notes

I sometimes add chopped ham at the end of the cooking time. This makes a lot. Freeze leftovers for a quick meal on a cold night.
