Senate Bean Soup
Christy Jordan of Southern Plate has many mouth-watering, simple recipes. The recipe for Senate Bean Soup can be found on Christy's website: http://www.southernplate.com/2010/01/shortcut-senate-bean-soup-and-mary-poppins-visits-bountiful.html
Notes:
*I use 1 1/2 to 2 cups of cooked, diced ham. If I don't have leftover ham in the freezer, I use Farmland Smoked Spiral Ham Slices and Pieces. I cut off any fat or rind and then dice enough to make 1 1/2 to 2 cups. The remaining ham can be frozen for the next batch of soup.
*Use 4 (15.5 oz.) cans navy beans

From Wikipedia: "Senate bean soup is a soup made with navy beans, ham hocks, and onion. It is served in the dining room of the United States Senate every day, in a tradition that dates to the early 20th century. The original version included celery, garlic, parsley, and mashed potatoes as well."
Cooking Tip: For years, I wasted leftover celery, because I didn't know how to store it properly. I finally stumbled across this technique that will keep celery crisp and fresh for up to 4 weeks! Wash and dry the celery, trim the edges with a sharp knife, and store it wrapped in a paper towel inside a zippered storage bag in the refrigerator.
