Crockpot Soup: 15 Bean

Source of Recipe

Fred Peters


List of Ingredients

20 ounces 15 bean soup mix (discard flavor pkg)
1 large onion, chopped
1 teaspoon minced garlic
1 teaspoon celery salt
2 stalks chopped celery
1 bay leaf
1 dash cayenne pepper
ground pepper to taste
kielbasa, sliced into coins


Recipe

Soak beans overnight, changing water frequently. Drain. In crock- pot, cover beans with 1 inch water. Add all other ingredients except kielbasa. Cover and cook on high for one hour; turn to low and cook overnight. Stir once or twice during cooking. One hour before serving, check the texture of the soup. If it's too thin, mash some of the beans with a potato masher. Add sliced kielbasa. Cook for one hour. Serve with Tabasco sauce and bread or rice. Serves 4 generously. NOTE: This soup freezes well. Leftovers are excellent (usually thicker from reheating), and are delicious served over rice.
