Ingredients:

  • ham hocks (2 or 3 sliced if you can get them)
  • 1 medium can diced tomatoes
  • 1 small can tomato paste (optional)
  • 2 large or 4 small cans pinto beans ( juice and all)
  • 1 medium can red kidney beans
  • penzeys parsley (2-3 tsp)
  • 2 1 lb package grandma's frozen egg noodles (or similiar)

Directions:

  1. Cook ham hocks with enough water to cover. I use a pressure cooker for about 1 hour. If you cook on the stovetop, cook for about 1 1/2 hours, or until the meat falls off the bone.
  2. Cool ham hocks and liquid to remove fat and separate meat from fat and bones.
  3. Put boneless meat back into the liquid and start to simmer.
  4. Add all ingredients to pot and simmer for at least an hour. It is better to simmer as long as you would any good soup.
  5. Boil noodles according to package instructions, al dente is best.
  6. Heat vegetable oil in large fry pan and drop in drained noodles about 1 deep.
  7. After noodles get golden, but not too brown, put in individual soup bowls and spoon in soup over them.
  8. Add some nice black pepper and hot sauce if you like!
