PinIngredients
- (1) package HamBeens® Cajun 15 BEAN SOUP
- (1) Green bell pepper, diced
- (1) Yellow onion, diced
- (1) cup diced celery
- 2 cloves chopped garlic
- 1 lb. Andouille smoked sausage, sliced into 1/4” rounds
- 1 can stewed or diced tomatoes (we prefer Red Gold!)
- 4 cups chicken stock
- 4 cups water
Cooking Directions
- No soak required! (If you do soak, reduce water by 1 cup for the recipe)
- Rinse and sort through the beans, check for any unwanted debris and discard.
- Add rinsed beans, onion, pepper, celery, garlic, chicken stock, water, and Hurst’s Cajun seasoning packet into a 4-6 quart slow cooker. (NO TOMATOES or SAUSAGE YET.)
- Stir to combine. Set slow cooker on high and cook for 5-7 hours then check to make sure beans are tender. The soup can continue to simmer for several hours and will develop more flavor over time.
- Check beans for doneness. If tender, add sausage and tomatoes.
- Cook for at least an additional 30-45 minutes, keep warm until ready to serve.**
- Serve with long grain rice or some fresh baked corn bread… enjoy!
Cooking Tips
- This can stay warming in the slow cooker for several hours, it will continue to develop the flavors and thicken up as the beans begin to break down.
- Try to avoid lifting the lid too much, it will just add to the cooking time!
