8 Servings

Ingredients

Quantity Ingredient
1 Ham bone
½ pounds Ham, diced
2 quarts Chicken stock
1 pounds White navy beans
½ teaspoon Garlic powder, or 2 cloves garlic, minced
2 Onions, diced
½ cup Celery, diced
½ cup Carrots, diced
4 Tomatoes, diced
2 tablespoons Tomato paste
1 Bay leaf
1 teaspoon Thyme
Salt and white pepper to taste

Directions

In a large Dutch oven or soup pot, place ham bone and diced ham and chicken stock. Simmer for ½ an hour. Rinse beans and add to Dutch oven with all the remaining ingredients. Bring to a boil, lower heat and simmer about 1½ to 2 hours or until beans are very soft. Add additional stock if soup becomes too thick or simmer longer if soup is too liquid, or add roux (2 tablespoons flour to 1 tablespoon oil) if you desire. Serve garnished with parsley.
