This is the US Senate's navy Bean Soup, tweaked hardly at all. It's basic, and beany. If you have ham for Christmas, then save that bone! If you like this recipe, see others at my website: http://mybestcookbook.wordpress.com

Steps:
- 1. Use your favorite method for the beans (soaking over night, or fast soak) drain the soaking water. Add 7 cups of water to the beans and add the ham bone. Simmer until beans are tender (about 1 1/4 hours). Remove the ham bone or hock, discard any fat and dice up the ham. Return to the pot.
- 2. Add the balance of the ingredients and simmer until potatoes are done. (20-30 minutes)
- 3. I mash some of the beans up with a potato masher to thicken the soup. You can omit this of course.

[email protected]This soup is a great way to use up leftover ham. It's also a very affordable meal, which is a plus. I love that I can make a big pot of soup and then freeze it for later. It's always a lifesaver on busy weeknights.

[email protected]This soup is a hearty and flavorful dish that is perfect for a cold winter day. The beans are cooked until tender and the vegetables are perfectly crisp. The broth is rich and flavorful, with a hint of smokiness from the ham. I highly recommend this
