Ham and Lima Bean Soup

This recipe comes from my rather old Crock Pot cook book. I have a Rival Crock Pot that I have used many, many times over the years. It really makes things easier in the evening when I get home from work.
    1 pound dry lima beans (soaked overnight)
    1 large onion, chopped (I use onion powder)
    1 large green pepper, chopped (I omitted this ingredient)
    1 teaspoon dry mustard
    1 teaspoon salt
    1 teaspoon pepper
    1/4 to 1/2 pound ham, cut in small piecest
    1 cup water (I use about 2 to 3 cups of water)
    1 10-ounce can tomato soup

Put all the ingredients in the crock pot. Stir together well. Cover and cook on low 7 to 10 hours (high: 4 to 5 hours). Tastes good served with wedges of hot corn bread; add a green salad and/or fruit and you have a nice light supper.
