Notes
- Kylee's Notes for 15 Bean Soup:
- Kylee's Notes for 15 Bean Soup:
- What are the beans in 15 Bean Soup Mix? Whew!! There are a lot! The brand I buy contains northern, pinto, large lima, blackeye, garbanzo, baby lima, green split, kidney, cranberry, small white, pink, small red, yellow split, lentil, navy, white kidney, black, yellow eye.
- What is a mirepoix? It's the combination of carrots, onion, and celery. Carrots, onion and celery form the basis of many soups. The "Holy Trinity" is onions, celery and bell peppers.
- Is 15 bean soup good for you? Well, yes - but that honestly depends on your diet and nutrition goals. I've listed the nutrition under the recipe card, but briefly - bean soup is a great source of protein, and is high in fiber.
- Can I make this ahead? YES! I like to put all the ingredients except for the ham bone and beans in a slow cooker, pop the lid on and put it in the fridge. Add the ham bone and soaked beans in the morning. Easy!
- I don't have a ham bone - what can I use instead? Some chopped ham steaks, leftover ham, anything you can find! I do love the flavor of a leftover ham bone (from Easter, perhaps), but have been known to sub in a smoked ham hock that I've gotten from the butcher.
- Can this crock pot soup be frozen after cooking? Absolutely. It does exceptionally well when stored correctly. I portion it into pints, and freeze for up to 6 months. Whatever you are using - make sure to leave a little room at the top as things expand when frozen! To eat - just thaw in the refrigerator and then cook in the microwave until piping hot. Alternatively, you can store in zipper bags, and lay it flat in the freezer! It takes a lot less time to thaw, but you will need to then transfer to a saucepan for stove-top reheating, or a microwave safe bowl.
