Ingredients

Servings
  • 1 package Hambeens® 15 BEAN SOUP® with seasoning packet
  • 8 cups reduced sodium chicken broth or chicken stock
  • 1 meaty ham bone or ham hocks, diced ham or 1 lb. cooked sausage
  • 1 medium yellow onion diced
  • 1 clove garlic minced
  • 1 teaspoon chili powder optional
  • 15 ounces canned diced tomatoes with juices, 1 can
  • 1 lemon juiced
  • hot sauce or red pepper flakes to taste, optional

Instructions

  1. Rinse the beans and drain. Sort any unwanted debris and set seasoning packet aside.
  2. In a 6qt crockpot, add the beans, broth, ham bone (if using), onion, garlic, and chili powder in a 6qt slow cooker. Do not add lemon or tomatoes until the beans are softened.
  3. Cook on high for 5 hours (or low for 7-8) or until the beans are tender.
  4. Once the beans are tender, remove the ham bone (if using), chop any meat left on the bone, and add it back to the slow cooker.
  5. Stir in the diced tomatoes, ham seasoning packet, and lemon juice.
  6. Cook for an additional 30 minutes. Season with salt and black pepper to taste and garnish with fresh parsley if desired.

Notes

  • It is important that acidic ingredients are not added until the beans are soft. Check that the beans are soft before adding the diced tomatoes and lemon juice. 
  • Replace the chicken broth with water, beef broth, or vegetable broth.
  • water, beef broth, or vegetable broth.
  • Rinse beans well and check for any debris. No soaking is needed when using a slow cooker. If you have already soaked the beans, you can reduce the liquid in the recipe by 1 cup.
  • Use a leftover ham bone in this soup. If you don't have one, ask at the deli counter for ham bones (they are inexpensive) or ham hocks. Leftover chopped ham can be used as well.
  • For a thinner consistency, add one extra cup of broth or water to the slow cooker. For a thicker bean soup, remove a cup or so of the beans, blend them, and add them back into the soup.
