Provided by Carolyn M.

Time 9h

Yield 5 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 lb lima beans, soaked overnight
1 large onion, peeled and diced
1 head about 10 garlic clove, peeled (ok to leave cloves whole)
1 (28 ounce) can diced tomatoes with basil
1 (28 ounce) can water (fill empty tomato can with water, then dump into crockpot)
2 teaspoons paprika
1 (12 ounce) package chicken and apple sausage, diced
1 teaspoon salt

Steps:

  • Place the drained lima beans into your cooker, and add the onion and garlic.
  • Dump in the tomatoes, then rinse the can into the pot.
  • Add paprika, and stir in the sausage. Cover, and cook on low for 8 to 10 hours, or until the beans are fully soft.
  • Use a handheld immersion blender to naturally thicken the broth by blending some of the beans and tomatoes. This also helps distribute the flavor and squish up the garlic cloves. If you don't have a handheld blender, you can scoop out a cup or so of the beans and smash them with a large fork or blend in a traditional blender, then stir them back into the pot.
  • Add salt and serve.

This soup is a great way to use up leftover lima beans. It's also a very affordable meal, which is always a bonus.

I'm not a big fan of lima beans, but this soup was actually really good! The flavors were well-balanced and the soup was very filling.

This soup was just okay. It wasn't bad, but it wasn't anything special either. I probably won't make it again.

This was my first time making lima bean soup and it turned out great! I used frozen lima beans and they worked perfectly. The soup was hearty and flavorful, and my family loved it.

This soup was a disappointment. The flavor was bland and the texture was mushy. I followed the recipe exactly, so I'm not sure what went wrong.

I've made this soup several times now and it's always a hit! It's so easy to make and the flavor is amazing. I love that it's a vegetarian soup, so I can feel good about serving it to my family and friends.

This soup was absolutely delicious! I made a few minor changes, such as using vegetable broth instead of chicken broth, and adding a pinch of cayenne pepper for a bit of spice. The result was a hearty, flavorful soup that was perfect for a cold winte
