Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method
-------- ------------ --------------------------------
2 pounds dry navy (pea) beans
2 quarts boiling water
1 tablespoon salt
1/4 cup instant minced onions
1 cup green pepper -- cut in thin strips
3/4 cup butter or margarine
3/4 cup unsifted flour

----- TOPPING FOR EACH PAN -----
1/4 cup fine dry breadcrumbs
1 tablespoon melted butter

Line four 8x8x2-inch baking pans with heat-resistant freezer wrap. Allow=
enough extra wrap to fold over top. Use one pan for each six servings or=
one-fourth of the recipe. Do not line pans for food to be served without=
freezing.

Add beans to boiling water; return to boiling. Boil beans 2 minutes;then=
soak beans 1 hour (or overnight, if preferred).

Add enough milk to the reserved bean liquid to make 1 1/2 quarts. Add the=
bean liquid and milk slowly to the vegetable mixture. Cook until=
thickened, stirring constantly. Stir in beans, cheese, and ham. Pour=
one-fourth of mixture into each baking pan. Pack food tightly to avoid air=
pockets.

TO SERVE WITHOUT FREEZING: Preheat oven to 375=B0 F. (moderate). Mix 1/4=
cup fine breadcrumbs with 1 tablespoon melted butter or margarine for each=
pan which will not be frozen. Sprinkle topping over bean mixture in baking=
pan. Bake 30 minutes or until crumbs are lightly browned.

TO FREEZE: Cool for 30 minutes at room temperature. Complete wrapping by=
pulling paper up over top of food. Put edges of wrap together and fold=
several times so paper lies directly on top of food. Fold ends of freezer=
wrap over the top and seal with freezer tape. Label with name of food,=
date of freezing, and last date the food should be used for best eating=
quality (about 6 months). Freeze immediately for 10 to 12 hours before=
removing packages from the pans.

TO HEAT FROZEN FOOD: Preheat oven to 375=B0 F. (moderate). Remove freezer=
wrap. Place food in baking pan. Mix 1/4 cup fine breadcrumbs with 1=
tablespoon melted butter or margarine for each pan. Sprinkle topping over=
bean mixture in baking pan. Bake 1 1/2 hours or until edges are bubbly,=
crumbs are lightly browned, and center is hot.
