  • 1 pound dry navy beans
  • 3 carrots, peeled and shredded
  • 2 medium potatoes, peeled and diced

  1. Place the beans in a slow cooker with enough water to cover, and soak 6 to 8 hours, or overnight.
  2. Drain the beans, and return to the slow cooker. Cover with water, and mix in the carrots, potatoes, celery, onion, and ham.
