New Years Bean Soup
1 bag 7 beans soup mix
5 c. water
1 can beer
1 c. ham or 2 meaty ham hocks
28 oz can diced or crushed tomatoes
1 clove garlic
1 medium chopped onion
1 1/2 tbs lemon juice
salt, black pepper and red pepper flakes to taste
Soak beans overnight.
Then add all ingredients and simmer slowly 3 hours or more, until the beans are tender.
Toddler review 1/1/2012
The littlest toddler scarfed his food though he missed lunch that day due to a massive tantrum. Both girls finished their bowls so they could have some more whole grain rolls.
Next time we're going to add less water and we might add some more ham. The ham hocks didn't yield much ham after cooking.
Another update.
I accidentally bought crushed tomatoes instead of diced tomatoes. I loved the rich tomato broth instead of pieces of tomatoes in broth. It's going to be a permanent change for me.
