Directions:

  1. I will try and keep the how to short, but it is worth every step. This recipe will do great on a Saturday or Sunday and when you need to feed dinner with only a few funds...its super delicious, and as mentioned in the description, you may substitute the navy beans for black bean, lentils or even pea beans.
  2. Take large soup pot and put water in half way.
  3. Rinse beans, looking for any pebbles or icky things that shouldn't be there.
  4. Add rinsed beans to pot and let sit on counter over night or at least 10 hours. Change water at least once.
  5. In A HURRY? After soaking for 30 minutes, drain water, and add enough water to cover beans plus 2 added cups water and let simmer for 3 hours.
  6. Proceed as directed without adding additional water.
  7. ***Back to normal directions***
  8. In morning, or after 10 hours, rinse beans completely and set aside for the moment.
  9. To stock pot, add a little drizzle of olive oil, add salt pork or bacon and cook for at least 5 minutes.
  10. Add onions, carrots, celery, and garlic to pot and sweat till soft NOT brown for 10 minutes, stirring occasionally.
  11. Add navy beans to pot, all remaining ingredients (except for hot dogs) including 2-1/2 quarts water and let come to a boil.
  12. Turn down and let simmer for 2 hours.
  13. Remove ham bone and bay leaves.
  14. Add sliced hot dogs to pot and simmer for additional 10 minutes and serve it up in large soup bowls.
