1 Ham Bone
3 Onions - coarsely chopped
1/2 bunch Celery - finely chopped including leafy tops
1 Tsp Garlic - minced
1-2 c. Instant Mashed Potatoes (for thickening)

1/2 bunch Celery - finely chopped including leafy tops
1 Tsp Garlic - minced
1-2 c. Instant Mashed Potatoes (for thickening)
Salt & Pepper - to taste (go a little heavy on the pepper)
Rinse beans that have soaked overnight. In a large pot, bring beans, ham bone, onions, celery, garlic and 3 quarts of water to a rolling boil. Reduce heat and simmer for 3 hours. Remove ham bone and cube the meat. Add the cubed ham back to the pot with enough of the instant mashed potatoes to bring the soup to the consistency (thickness) you prefer.
