This is a great weekday recipe for cold, winter nights. Start before you go to bed with the crock pot set to high and turn to low before you leave for work the next morning. I serve it with garlic crostini, topped with parmesan or fresh mozzarella. Ingredients:
2 large smoked ham hocks |
1 large yellow onion, diced |
4 large garlic cloves, minced |
1- 14.5 oz can petite diced tomatoes |
1 bag 15 bean soup dried beans |
1 tsp cayenne pepper |
juice of 1 lemon |
water to cover |
Directions:
1. Score ham hocks and place in bottom of large crock pot. 2. Put onion, garlic, tomatoes, beans, cayenne, and lemon on top of ham hocks. 3. Cover with water. 4. Set crockpot to HIGH for longest setting (mine is 6 hours). 5. Once high cycle is finished, set to LOW for longest setting (mine is 10 hours). 6. When finished with low cycle, remove ham hocks and check for bones that have fallen off in the soup. Allow to cool for 10 minutes. 7. Shred meat and stir back into soup. |
