Yield: 6 servings
Calories: 48cal
Materials
- 3 15 oz. Great Northern Beans
- 6 cups water about 3 cans
- 1 Fully Cooked Ham Steak with bone in
- ½ tsp. ground pepper
Instructions
- In a large pot over the stove, add the beans, water, and ham - I empty the beans out, fill the cans with water, and dump the water into the pot - my lazy way of avoiding getting one more item out of the cupboard :)
- Set the heat to high, and get it boiling, turn the heat down to simmer
- Simmer for about 30-45 minutes - the liquid should thicken up a bit
- Take the ham steak out and cut it up, place it back into the beans
- Just a couple of minutes before serving - add the ground pepper, and stir in
Notes
- Serving Suggestion: Serve with your favorite cornbread recipe
