- 4 stalks celery, chopped
- 2 1/2 Cups dried beans and/or lentils of your choice (I use 1/2 Cup each of black beans, red beans, pinto beans, cannellini beans, and brown lentils

- 1 tsp dried thyme
- 1 tsp dried oregano
- 1 tsp dried sage
- 2 bay leaves
- 2 tsp garlic powder
- salt
- pepper
Instructions
- Soak beans overnight, if desired. Drain and rinse beans. (This will speed up the cooking process but is not required.)
- Add all ingredients into Crockpot.
- Cook for 5 hours on high, or about 9 hours on low, until beans reach desired doneness. (Plan on increasing these times if you didn’t soak the beans)
- Add salt and pepper to taste.
- Remove bay leaves before serving.
Notes
Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge and enjoy within 3-4 days
