I've made a similar recipe before, but it's been a long time. It is really, really good! Need to make it again - soon! :)
Did anyone ever ask which 13 beans were in the dried bean package? That would be useful on a national basis.
Hi, Tex,
A traditional 13-bean soup mix includes:
navy, black, red, pinto, limas, garbanzo, great northern, kidney, red lentils, brown lentils, black-eyed peas, yellow split peas, and green split peas.
I always add 1/2 a lemon or lime, sliced. Gives just the right zing!
