This month's flavor is

STEWS 

(mine is actually a soup sometimes I'm a rule breaker)

Vegetarian Bean Soup

1 small onion chopped (optional)

1 28 oz can crushed tomatoes

1 16 oz can "baked" beans with liquid

1 16 oz can lima beans (rinsed and drained)

1 16 oz can red kidney beans (rinsed and drained)**

1 cup of water

1 tablespoon brown light brown sugar

1 tablespoon thyme

Salt and pepper optional

Cheddar Cheese to put on top before serving

Directions for crock pot:

Add onion to crock pot first, then add tomatoes, beans, brown sugar and thyme.  Stir

Cook on high for about 4 hours.  Served topped with cheddar cheese.

**Hints: I never substitute the vegetarian beans or lima beans.  I often substitute kidney with navy.  Sometimes I use kidney and navy if I want it thicker.

Makes 4 servings in the above size bowl
