Slow Cooker Bean and Ham Soup
This hearty Ham and Bean Soup is a tasty and inexpensive recipe that will keep you full and warm on a cold day.
Flavored with chicken stock and tomato sauce, this is a simple and easy slow cooker soup that yields a perfect result every time!
You can use left over ham from an earlier meal or buy a ham steak and dice into large cubes.
This is a great frugal meal that is really healthy - legumes are full of protein and fiber
Slow cooker soup is one of the easiest recipes there is - just add ingredients in the morning, turn on Low and go about your day.
Note: Soak the legumes for 12 hours before cooking. We find it easiest to just soak overnight, then add to crockpot in the morning.
Dinner will be ready and waiting for you! Just add a bun and a side salad and you're ready to enjoy a delicious hearty meal.
Rinse the lentils well, then soak in clean water for 12 hours before cooking.
We use our home made Tomato sauce in this recipe, but any canned sauce will work.
Let it cook all day on Low; it will take about 9 hours to cook and thicken.
Store any extra in an airtight container in either the fridge or the freezer. This soup will keep in the freezer for at least 4 months.
