Ingredients
- 1 ounce package 15 bean mix dry, discard the seasoning packet
- 2 carrot chopped
- 2 celery chopped, stalks
- 1 small onion chopped
- 3 cloves garlic minced
- 1 cup ham diced
- 1 .5 ounce can diced tomatoes with juice
- 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning dried
- 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
- 1 teaspoon salt
- ½ teaspoon chili powder
- ½ teaspoon cumin ground
- ½ teaspoon black pepper
- 1 bay leaf
- 6-8 cups chicken broth
Instructions
- Rinse the 15 bean mix thoroughly and check for any stones or debris. Soaking the beans overnight will help ensure they cook properly within the recommended time.
- In a microwave-safe bowl, combine the chopped carrots, celery, onion, and minced garlic. Cover with a damp paper towel and microwave on high for 3-4 minutes until slightly softened. This will enhance their flavor in the final dish.
- In the Slow Cooker: In a 6-8 quart slow cooker, add the rinsed and soaked beans, diced ham, softened vegetables, diced tomatoes (including the juice), all seasonings, and chicken broth.
- Cover the slow cooker and cook on low for 8 hours or on high for 4 hours, until the beans are tender.
- Once the soup is done cooking, remove the bay leaf. Taste the soup and adjust the salt and spices as needed for your preference.
- Ladle the soup into bowls and savor! This hearty bean soup goes perfectly with some crusty bread for dipping.
Notes
- Use bouillon: If you don’t have chicken broth, I recommend using water and chicken bouillon if possible. It tastes great with the 15-bean soup mix. Just be cautious adding more salt! I suggest tasting it before you add more.

- Check the beans for doneness: You can taste the beans or use a fork to test for doneness. If they are not soft enough, allow the soup to cook a bit longer.

- Try a liner: One of my favorite slow cooker “hacks” is using liners. They hold up well and make cleanup a breeze.
