Crockpot Beans - 38g Carbs, 14g Fiber
From Dr. Weil
8 Serving
This is a trouble-free method of making beans from scratch that
doesn’t require soaking the beans overnight. You can, however, shorten
the cooking time somewhat by boiling the beans in a generous amount of
water in a separate pot for 2 minutes, turning off the heat and
letting the beans soak for one hour. Drain the beans, add them to the
crockpot with fresh water and cook according to the recipe.
1 lb dried beans, like pinto or navy
1 onion, chopped
1 clove garlic, chopped
1 bay leaf
Salt and pepper to taste
Pick through the beans to remove any stones. Rinse the beans in a
colander under running water. Put the beans, onion, garlic and bay
leaf in a crockpot. Fill the crockpot with water to within 1 inch of
the top. Cook the beans on high heat for about 8 hours. Add salt and
pepper to taste before serving.
