Ingredients
2 onions
1 bell pepper
1 small bag great northern beans (dried)
ham bone or ham pieces
season to taste
Directions
Put all ingredients in a heavy soup pot with enough water to cover all ingredients. Boil on medium heat until beans are tender, usually 4 to 5 hours checking liquid as it cooks adding more if needed. Season to taste with salt and black pepper.
Sometimes I cook up the bean dish the consistency of watery gravy to serve over rice and add fried pork chops to the dish.
