Fifteen Bean Soup

Ingredients

  • 1 lb. 4 oz. 15 bean soup pkg. Follow directions on pkg. for soaking beans.
  • 1 medium to large onion, chopped
  • 1 medium to large clove of garlic, minced
  • 2-3 Delmonte's tomato stew, Italian style. I used 2, but think I'll use 3 next time. (There is also Mexican and Cajun style, so perhaps you could go with which ever suits your fancy.)
  • 1 teaspoon chili powder
  • salt and pepper to taste.

Directions

After soaking beans overnight, drain the beans and add the remaining ingre-
dients. (Do not drain tomato stew.)

Cook over low heat for several hours until beans are tender.

The reason I think I might use 3 cans of tomato stew next time is because
each time it is reheated it seems to need a little more liquid. I guess the
beans keep absorbing the juice.
