Story

I remember my Gramma's Navy Bean soup. It took all day to make! You know, boil the ham bone, cook the dry beans, etc. etc. I loved her soup, but I just don't think I have the time to make it the way she did. This one is full of flavor and it's quick. Watch that you don't simmer it too hard. Beans are delicate and will tend to foam up if you boil them. Don't forget the crusty bread to go with this!
