Ingredients
2 cans Great Northern beans, undrained1 cup extra lean ham, cubed3 cups baby spinach8 fresh mushrooms, sliced
Directions
1. Steam spinach in microwave until completely wilted. Separate and shred with fork.
2. Add beans to a large pot, including juices.
3. Add diced ham, spinach, and sliced mushrooms.
4. Cook on medium-high heat until hot and bubbly. I eat it when the mushrooms are partly but not completely cooked.
5. I think it tastes great just like this so I don't add any spices. Serve with a thick slice of homemade whole wheat bread, or cornbread (not included in nutritional info). Calculated on 4 servings.

    sounds really good , high in fiber and iron but way too much sodium. Probably could make it with dried beans, veg. broth, lowsalt ham, etc. LOL probably wouldnt taste as good but I am willing to try. - 12/7/08
