Recipe of the Month

It is a great delight to receive recipies from the members. Here is one that Pat Sledge passed on to me before she went outside in May. I held it until her return, so now that she is back, safe and sound, here it is.

Pat's Cheap Navy Bean Soup

Ingredients:

• 1 can Trappy's Navy Beans (see Pat's note below)
• 1 medium potato, diced
• 1 thick slice ham, diced
• 1 medium tomato, diced
• 1 medium piece cabbage, chopped
• carrots, diced
• onion, diced
• 1 Tbs beef boulion
• Optional: 1 tsp pearl barley

Seasonings:

• dash Seasoned Salt
• garlic powder to taste
• cellery salt to taste
• ground black pepper to taste

Preparation

Combine ingredients in a soup pot. Add 2 or 3 cans (use the bean can) of water. Add seasonings as you are heating the pot to a boil. Cover and let simmer for awhile.

Pat's Notes: The only store in which I have found Trappy's Navy Beans is the Red Apple.
