It's a recipe for slow cooker bean soup:-

1 1/2 c diced ham
1 cup diced onion
1 cup chopped celery
1 cup shredded carrots
1 cup Hunt's tomato sauce
2 cups hot water
20 ounces great northern beans, drained and rinsed
1 tbsp splenda or sugar twin
1 tps dried parsley.

Combine all ingredients and cook on low for 6-8 hours, mixing well
before serving.

DH asked for some bean soup and this one fits with my schedule. I
just didn't know what kind of beans it called for, not being familiar
with the Great Northern brand. I'll pick up some this week with the
groceries. It's from "A Potful of Recipes" by JoAnn Lund Many good
healthy recipes in this one. We're diabetic and also watch our fat
intake.
