Cuisine American
- 2 Tbsp Olive Oil
- 1 Yellow Onion
- 1 Large Carrot
- 2 Stalks Celery (with leafy greens)
- 6 Cups Turkey Stock Can Substitute with Chicken Stock
- 2 Cups Chopped Smoked Ham Good quality store-bought is A-Okay!
- 1 Cup Fresh Green Beans
- 1 Cup Rancho Gordo Cranberry Beans
- 1 Tsp Salt
- 1/2 Tsp Fresh Ground Black Pepper
Add the oil to a large dutch oven and turn the heat to medium.
Chop the onion, celery (and their leafy greens!), and carrot and add to the pot. Cook these until tender, about 15 minutes, stirring occasionally.
While the veggies are cooking, chop the ham into bite-sized pieces and trim the beans, and cut into one inch pieces.
Once the veggies are cooked, throw in the ham, beans, chicken stock, green beans, salt + pepper, and bring the soup up to a boil, then turn down to simmer.
Cook for 1.5 hours, or until the beans are tender.
