Ingredients

2 cups Navy Beans, rinsed

1 medium onion, diced

2 stalks celery, sliced

1 large carrot, chopped

2 cloves garlic, minced

4 cups vegitable broth

1 can diced tomatoes

1 tsp paprika

1/2 tsp dry mustard

1/8 tsp red pepper (more if you like more)

2 tsp fresh thyme, chopped

10 oz spinach, chopped (I use frozen)

2 cups leftover rice (I use a combo of wild rice/brown rice)

black pepper, fresh ground, to taste

Directions

I use dried beans, so soak them over night first (about 1 1/4 cups dried will make 2 cups.)

In crockpot put in order: onion, celery, carrot, garlic, beans, broth, tomatoes, paprika mustard, red pepper. Cook on low about 9 hours. The rehydrated beans need it to get tender. If you use canned you can cook it for 5-6 hours.

Then stir in fresh thyme, and spinach and rice. Add more broth if you think you need it. Cook 1-2 more hours, and serve.
