Slow Cooker Black Beans cooked with a meaty ham bone for a delicious and comforting meal that takes little effort.

Slow Cooker Black Beans Recipe from Miss in the KitchenBlack beans are my favorite, I almost always have several cans in my pantry for adding to nachos, casseroles, or to serve up as a side dish.  A while back, I found some dried black beans at the grocery store, brought them home and then promptly forgot about them.  I am good like that.

I have been spending every spare minute trying to get my accounting finished.  It stresses me out, it is not my favorite thing to do by any means.  So to avoid the added stress of dinner, I decided a slow cooker meal was in order.  I went to digging around and found the dried black beans and it just so happened that I had a nice, meaty ham bone in the freezer.

Make sure you save the ham bone from your Easter ham and you will be all ready for a super easy and healthy meal.  There’s so much flavor from that ham bone, and if you leave a little meat on the bone it makes this even better.
