NAVY BEAN AND HAM POT PIE
This one was a family favorite when we were kids but I did not find the recipe in Mom's notebook. (She had an entire dresser drawer full of recipe clippings and I just took the notebook and few of the papers when she passed.) So I called my sister Susan Stevens. We brainstormed and I think we have the recipe from our combined...

Steps:
- 1. PREPARING THE BEANS: The night before rinse beans and remove any rocks. Place beans in pot and cover with water to soak overnight on the stove top. In the morning you will see bubbles on the water -- the beans are releasing some of their gas.
- 2. Discard the soaking water and cover the beans with water again and bring to a boil. After it comes to a boil, turn the heat off, let it cool a little, and then discard this water, too. (This removes a lot of the gas from the beans.)
- 3. COOKING THE BEANS AND SOUP: Fill a 6 qt pot with the beans and 4 quarts of fresh water.
- 4. Add the ham, onion, celery, and carrots (all cubed small) to the water and turn up the heat to bring it to a boil, again. Then turn the heat down and simmer for a few hours until the beans are cooked. (You can reduce the cooking time to about 30-45 minutes by using a pressure cooker.)
- 5. MAKING THE POT PIE DOUGH: 1.Combine flour, milk, egg, and salt. Mix well. If dough is too sticky just add a little more flour. 2.Roll dough out on flour covered area to about 1/4" inch thick. (Thickness should be about twice what you would use for actual pie crust.) Cut dough into 1 1/2" squares to make noodles.
- 6. Slowly drop individual squares into the bubbling finished soup and cook for 10 minutes on medium heat until noodles are done. You can tell they are done when they puff up a little and change to an even color. Serve immediately. Note 1: if you cook the dough too long they will slowly disintegrate into the soup. This is not bad, it won't ruin the soup, but you won't have any of the delicious pot pie to eat -- which is part of the pleasure.
- 7. Note 2: No need to add salt, the ham has plenty. If you add too much ham, the soup will be too salty.
- 8. Note 3: This could be made with a ham bone, rather than the ham steak. You can also make it with about 1/2 pkg of uncooked bacon cut in cubes.

Steps:
- Place navy beans into a large pot and cover with cold water by 2 inches. Bring to a boil, reduce heat to low, and simmer for 5 minutes. Remove pot from heat, cover, and let stand for 1 hour. Drain beans.

Place soaked beans, herb bundle, ham hocks, carrot, onion, and garlic into a large soup pot or Dutch oven. Pour 8 cups cold water over ingredients. Bring to a boil, reduce heat to low, and simmer until beans and ham hocks are tender, about 1 1/2 hours.

NAVY BEAN (HAM AND BEAN) SOUP
Hearty, thick soup that's a perfect something to do with your leftover holiday ham and bones. Use two bones with plenty of meat on them instead of the ham hocks. I make it every time we have two ham bones in the freezer and once I take most of the meat off, the dogs get the bones for a special treat, so they love when I make this too! Found it on the Food Network site, but I've tweaked it a bit.

WHITE NAVY BEAN SOUP WITH HAM HOCKS
Ham hocks are available at your butcher. Okay, you might not have one. Do yourself a favor, and get to know one. If that means that you actually have to talk to the guy at the meat counter at the supermarket, so be it. Ask if you can get some hocks in. You would be surprised at the cost of the hocks. They are pure gold, and priced like dirt.

Steps:
- Pick through beans to make sure there are no stones. Nothing sucks like breaking your teeth on a stone when it should be a bean!
- Place the beans in the crock pot; cover with water.
- Set on high cooking and cook for an hour.
- Now, some of you will argue that we should or should not season the beans because of the skins. Well, it is a moot point here as we are adding something salty to it anyway. Moving right along.
- Ham hocks go inches If you cannot find ham hocks, don't worry. The recipe will be fine. Just throw in a ham bone. No ham bone? You're killing me here! You could just use a couple slices of ham.
- Add your bay leaf to the crock pot. Don't worry - it will float. No panic. Really!
- Hack up the onion, a small dice is fine, toss it into te crock pot.
- Mince the garlic, again - you guesed it - into the crockpot. Are you with me so far?.
- Hack the potatoes into a medium dice, toss them into the crock pot. You will be needing them to give your soup some body - that stick-to-your-ribs quality. Besides, they are in season.
- Set all of that onto 10 hour on low cooking.
- Just before serving, remove the meat and bay leaf from the soup. Once the meat is cold enough to handle, shred it up!
- Puree up half of the soup with a hand blender. Do it right in the crockpot! Why waste or clean another vessel. If you have dishwashers, then don't worry about it. If you don't - you get the idea.
- Put the meat back into the soup.
- Now is the time to adjust for seasoning. We start off with the lemon juice, then we adjust the salt and pepper in stages.
- Taste a spoon full, think about the saltiness or the pepperiness. *I am sure that should be a word!*.
- Once the soup is where you would like it to be, ladle it up and serve it with that local artisan bread.
- Props to you! You just cooked something easy for Winter.
