Crock Pot Turkey Bean Bacon Dip Recipes

Steps:

• Cook 4 chopped slices turkey bacon, 1 chopped onion, 3 chopped garlic cloves and 2 teaspoons thyme in vegetable oil in a large skillet, stirring, 5 minutes. Add two 15-ounce cans great Northern beans (drained and rinsed), 1 1/2 cups water, 1/2 cup ketchup, 1/3 cup maple syrup, 2 tablespoons yellow mustard, 1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar and 1/2 teaspoon pepper. Simmer over medium-low heat until thickened, about 20 minutes.

Steps:

• Set aside half an onion and chop the rest. Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the chopped onions, carrots and garlic; sprinkle with the flour and cook, stirring, until slightly browned, 5 minutes. Add 2 tablespoons water and scrape up any browned bits from the pan. Transfer the vegetables and cooking liquid to a slow cooker. Add the beans, turkey drumstick, pickling-spice packet, red pepper flakes and 8 cups water. Cover and cook on low 6 hours.
• Remove the drumstick and shred the meat; keep warm. Remove about 2 cups beans from the cooker and blend until smooth (or partially blend with an immersion blender). Return the beans and turkey meat to the soup. Season with salt and pepper.
• Mince the reserved 1/2 onion. Ladle the soup into bowls and top with the cilantro and minced onion. Garnish with sour cream and lime, if desired.
