I work from 10 to 11 hours a day at my nursery retail store, and most nights I'm exhausted by the end of the workday. I love being able to just throw things in the crock pot and have it ready at the end of the day! Prep time doesn't include soaking of beans. I soak mine overnight.

prep time 15 Min
cook time 7 Hr
method Slow Cooker Crock Pot
yield could serve 6, but hubby and I eat on this for two days

Ingredients

  • 16 ounces dry beans, soaked in your preferred manner
  • 2 - carrots, sliced
  • 2 stalks celery, sliced
  • 1 - onion, diced
  • - bacon, uncooked (i used about 6 slices, cut up)
  • - water to cover
