HEARTY PORK BEAN SOUP
It's wonderful to come home to this pork bean soup dinner simmering away in a slow cooker, especially on a busy weeknight. This soup uses dried beans and is simple to throw together in the morning before work. When you get home, just add a few more ingredients, and in half an hour dinner is ready! Do not put the tomatoes in for the first 8 hours of cooking, or the beans will not become soft. -Colleen Delawder, Herndon, Virginia

[email protected]I've tried this recipe twice now and both times it's been a disaster. The soup is bland and the beans are always undercooked.
