Going to make this for tomorrow's light "day before T-day" dinner. Beans are already soaking. I like to soak them extra-long in case they're old.

Is this both a can of tomatoes, chopped, and two cups of chopped tomatoes? It seems they might be equivalent amounts so I wanted to check. Thanks!

Sorry that I've taken so long to write. I remember my days with infants so vividly. I have never before or since been so fatigued, much as I loved the other parts. I am now filling my freezer for the mother of my 9th grandchild. Anyway, there's no need to fool around too much with dried beans. I discovered then (slow cookers were just becoming popular) that you can just put a cup of beans in the cooker and 2 cups of water and cook on high for 3 hours or so. You can do it on low overnight - always works, just use a little extra water.. Stephanie might be able to give some suggestions about what seasonings to put in at this point -- I always wait to add salt or acid (were these old wives' tales or not?) to make sure the beans soften.
