Dinner-

Many Bean Soup
1/3 C great northern beans

1/3 C pinto beans
1/3 C red beans
8 C water
1 onion, chopped
1 celery stalk, chopped
2 garlic cloves, minced
1 bay leaf
1 large ham hock

Soak the beans overnight, drain and place in a large pot with water. Add onion, celery, garlic, bay leaf, and ham hock. Bring to a boil and then reduce heat to low. Cover and simmer until all the beans are tender about 3 hours. Remove and cool the ham hock slightly, remove the meat from the bone and return meat to the pot. Stir and serve.

Crockpot Applesauce
2 lbs apples, peeled and cored
3 Tbsp. lemon juice

Combine everything in a crockpot and cook on low for 6-8 hours or until done. Mash apples with a potato masher until they are the consistency your family likes.
