Provencal Ham & Bean Soup image

There is nothing quite like the wonderful feeling of when you open the door and smell this delicious stew bubbling away in the slow cooker. To make preparation even easier, I like to start it the night before, and then all I have to do is turn on the slow cooker in the morning. -Lyndsay Wells, Ladysmith, British Columbia
