Bean Soup


1 lb dried, uncooked beans (navy, cannellini or other white bean)
8-10 cups water
1-2 carrots, diced
1 small onion, diced
2-3 slices uncooked bacon
salt & pepper, to taste
Instructions

Place beans in a large stockpot and cover with water overnight for 6-8 hours.
In the morning, rinse beans well and pour out soaking water.
Fill stockpot with all the ingredients, bring to a rapid boil, then turn down to medium low heat and let it simmer for 1.5 – 2 hours. (If the liquid evaporates, just fill with more to cover beans.)
