Ingredients:
Amount Ingredient
1 cup dried beans soaked overnight and drained*
1 cup slow-cooking grains**
1 x onion chopped
4 x cloves garlic chopped
1 can crushed tomatoes (28-ounce)
or
1 can plus 1 canful water (15-ounce)
generous pinches of herbs***
Instructions:
Instructions: *(I used navy beans this time, but Ive used kidney beans and others would also be good)

**(I use half wheat berries and half rye berries)

***(this time it was thyme and rosemary, usually it is basil and oregano)

Cook on low for 10-12 hours, and serve. It seems like a very small amount of liquid, but Ive found that everything in the crockpot retains more liquid than when cooked on the stove, and the beans have already absorbed a lot in the soaking. If you like your beans soupy (or want to use it as a soup), add more. If you dont mind very-cooked vegetables, or are around to add vegetables an hour or two before serving, chop up some carrots and celery and add. I find that the canned tomatoes have quite enough salt for my taste.
