1  medium onion chopped

1 tbs butter or olive oil

salt and pepper to taste

In a large pot, cook butter (oil) and veggies until soft (5-10 min).  Add broth and beans and bring to a boil; then simmer for an hour.  Transfer to crockpot and continue cooking on low for 2-3 hours or until beans are soft to consistency.  Do not overcook as soup will become less brothy.  Salt and pepper as needed!

**Add more or less veggies depending if you like a thicker soup or more brothy soup.
