Greek-Style Gigante Beans
Look for bags of large white dried beans at any store that sells Mediterranean foods. Allow time to soak the beans for at least eight hours. And, once they're cooked, freeze some for a meal down the road.
Ingredients:
12 ounces dry gigante beans
1 can (28 ounces) chopped tomatoes, with juice
2 stalks celery, diced
1 onion, diced
4 garlic cloves, minced
Water as needed
Instructions:
- Put the beans in a large bowl, cover with water, and soak for eight hours.
- Drain, rinse, and add to the slow cooker with the remaining ingredients. Stir, and add a little water to cover the beans completely with liquid.
- Cover, and cook for 8 to 10 hours, until the beans are soft and tasty. Enjoy hot, at room temperature, or cold.
