I made this as a side dish, but after looking at it, it could easily be converted into a full meal. Therefore, the listings below are to be expected for 4-8 servings.
1 bag of navy beans (dry)
1 pound sausage (I used mild, because that is what we had)
1 medium onion (diced)
4 beef bouillon cubes
6 cups of boiling water
Wash and rinse your beans, then soak them in HOT water while you fry the sausage, breaking it up as it cooks.
While the sausage is frying, put the bullion cubes in a crock pot and add the boiling water. Add the onion.
When the sausage is cooked, add it and a little of the grease to the crock pot, then add the beans.
Cook this on low for at least 4-5 hours, up to 8-9 hours. This will allow the beans to fully cook and all the flavors to combine. You may need to add more water, if they appear to be drying out.
This is a really cheap meal, about $3.00 if you buy store brand beans and sausage. And if you are like us, we would eat this at least twice, maybe 3 times, so it could potentially be brought down to $1.00 per serving. Not too bad!
The official HGTT actually ate this (she doesn't like beans) and even said, it was pretty good. I thought it was awesome!
All the best!

I would love this as a main dish with some yellow sweet corn muffins! MMMMMM! I'm glad your official taste tester liked it, too!
I bet this would be good with many types of beans too. I agree with Beth that it could make a decent meal with some cornbread.
