Recipe - Basic Crockpot Beans

2 Onions, chopped
2 3 cloves garlic
1 pound Dried beans, soaked 4 hours
Or over night
1 2 bay leaves
Water to cover.

Put in crockpot and cook about 46 hours on high or overnight on low. Beans
should be soft (small white beans take longest, pinto beans shorter)

Add spices, veggies, etc. (see below) cook about another hour.

Spices:, veggies, etc:

1) 1 tsp dried cumin, 1 tsp paprika, One fourth tsp cayenne pepper, 12 Tbsp. soy
sauce, a few chili peppers, chopped, chopped green pepper, can chopped
tomotoes, some frozen corn. (Good with black beans) One half tsp liquid smoke
tastes good added.

2) 1 tsp cumin, 1 can chopped green chilis, chopped green pepper, 1 Tbsp
soy sauce (good with white beans).

3) 12 Tbsp soy sauce, One fourth cup molasses, One fourth tsp cayenne, One half tsp dried
mustard, (good with pinto or black eyed peas)

Garbanzo beans I usually use as a substiute in chicken recipes, so I'll
freeze them with just the onions and garlic. Frozen black eyed peas are
also a good staple to have on hand (for some reason that's the only legume
that comes frozen except for lima beans which I don't like).
