I had a meaty ham bone...and wanted a hearty stick to your ribs kind of meal. And this is what I came up with. It turned out so tasty...I have to share it. The baby lima beans cook up fast, I didn't even pre-soak them. But if you want...sure go ahead. Total time was 3 1/2 hours...and wow...its even better the next day. All the flavors blend in that time. I hope you give it a try, if your a bean soup person...this is a must.
Ingredients:
2 cups baby lima beans
1 large ham bone, meaty
2 medium onions, chopped
2 large carrots, chopped
3 celery ribs, chopped
1 teaspoon cavenders all purpose greek seasoning
2 garlic cloves, chopped
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon pepper
6 cups water
Directions:
1. In a large pot throw in;.
2. Washed beans, and the rest of the ingredients, except for the salt.
3. Put enough water or stock to completely cover all ingredients.
4. Cook for around 3 to 3/12 hours, taste and add the salt if needed.
5. ( depends on the ham )
6. I put some mozzarella cheese in the bottom of the bowl - and put the
7. soup on top. It melts and gives the soup even more flavor.( as if it
8. needed it.lol ).
