My dad invented this soup when I was a kid. It's one of my favorite winter soups -- thick, delicious, and healthy. The lima beans need to be soaked overnight, and the soup needs to simmer for a couple of hours, so make it on a winter weekend. It freezes well, too.
Prep Time: 8:00
Cook Time: 3:00
Ingredients:
  • 1 cup dried lima beans
  • 1 onion, chopped
  • 1 carrot, sliced
  • 1 stalk celery, sliced
  • 1 sm. can gluten-free tomato sauce
  • 1 potato, cut into eighths
  • 1 16 oz. can gluten-free creamed corn
  • 1/8 tsp mustard powder
  • 1/8 tsp black pepper
  • 1 package frozen mixed vegetables (peas, carrots, strings beans, corn, etc.)
  • 1 gluten-free beef boullion cube
Preparation:
  • Soak beans in a bowl of water for 8 hours or overnight. Disgard water when finished.

  • Put all ingredients in a large pot, and add 8 cups of water.

  • Cover the pot, and simmer for about 3 hours.

  • Add salt and additional pepper to taste.
