crockpot

Bean Soup

2 cups dried lima beans

8 cups cold water

1 large onion, roughly chopped

1 carrot, peeled and quartered

2 cloves garlic, crushed

1 vegetable bouillon cube

2 tbsp corn oil

1 medium onion, finely diced

2 tsp kosher salt

pepper

Soak lima beans in cold water overnight. Drain the lima beans and rinse

several times to loosen shells. Place in crockpot with water, chopped onion,

carrot, bouillon and garlic. Cover and cook on Low 18-24 hours, until beans

are very tender. Remove cover and turn off heat to cool a little. In the

meantime, heat the oil in a skillet and saute the finely diced onion until

browned. Ladle a small bit of soup at a time into a blender or food processor

until all soup is pureed. Return to crockpot and stir in browned onions.

Season with salt and pepper to taste. Freezes well.
