Leftover Ham Bone Soup

Not much different than the U.S. Senate bean soup I used to eat almost everyday when I worked on the Hill, you can add diced potatoes to make it a little hardier.  The bone gives it a wonderful flavor.  Great for the Winter months ahead.

4 cans navy beans or Northern Beans, drained

3 qt. water

1 ham bone, with a bit of meat.  Cut up the extra meat into bite size pieces.

1 c. celery

1 med. onion, chopped

4 carrots, sliced

1 tbsp. salt

Pepper

Put it all in a slow cooker for about 6-8 hours on low.
