Soup Instructions:
Add beans to a large pot; cover with hot water to soak overnight. Drain water from pot. Add 2 quarts of water to the beans. Bring this to a boil; reduce heat and simmer, covered until beans are almost tender. This will take 1-2 hours. Add 2 (14.5 oz) cans stewed tomatoes and the seasoning mix. Simmer, uncovered until beans are tender, 1 - 1 1/2 hours. Enjoy!
