Crockpot Bean & Ham Soup

We all love a good crockpot soup recipe, right?  Just set it and go.  I prepped the veggies the night before, placed them in a storage container and popped them in the fridge.  This Bean & Ham Soup recipe was a hit with my family. (And my weeknight cooking blues)

I placed all the ingredients in the crockpot, turned it to low and set the timer for 8 hours.

So to make this soup thicker, I removed the lid at about 6 1/2 to 7 hours of cooking time and let it keep cooking until we were ready to eat.  I would say that was about 2 hours later.  You could make a slurry or just mash some of the beans with a potato masher.

Enjoy
