Personal Notes:
Personal Notes:
This soup comes out very thick and hearty, just the way we love it! If you prefer a thinner consistency, add one extra cup of broth or water to your slow cooker. And while soaking the beans in this recipe definitely is not required, if you have already soaked your beans, you can reduce the liquid in the recipe by 1 cup.

We love this Ham and Bean soup served right out of the Crock Pot with a big piece of cornbread but it’s delicious served over rice too! Enjoy!
