Recipe - Fifteen-Bean Crockpot Soup

1 pack Bean soup mix; discard
flavoring mix
1 lg Onion; chopped
1 teaspoon Garlic
1 teaspoon Celery salt
2 Stalks Celery; chopped
1 Bay leaf
1 ds Cayenne pepper
1 pound Kielbasa sausage

Soak beans overnight. Drain. In crockpot, cover beans with water. Add all
other ingredients except sausage. Cover and cook on high for one hour; turn
to low and cook 7 to 10 hours. Stir once or twice during cooking. One hour
before serving, check the texture of the soup. If too thin, mash some of
the beans. Add cut or sliced up keilbasa. Cook one hour more. Serve with rice or
bread. Notes from Lynn Thomas: Made this 12 596. Omitted the bay leaf and
celery salt. Added 1 tsp. thyme, 2 chopped carrots, used Healthy Choice
smoked sausage, and put everything in the crockpot at the beginning.
Covered with vegetable broth instead of water and cooked on low about 11 to
12 hours. Absolutely delicious!
