Ingredients
1 pound dried navy beans

2 medium carrots, chopped

1 medium onion, chopped

2 stalks celery with leaves, chopped

1 (14.5 ounce) can whole tomatoes in juice

1 (6 ounce) can tomato paste

4 cups water, or as needed to cover

3 cups extra-virgin olive oil

salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste

Directions
Fill a large pot with cold water, add navy beans, and soak 8 hours to overnight.

Drain and rinse beans. Return to the pot with carrots, onion, and celery.

Use kitchen shears to cut whole tomatoes in the can; add to the pot along with tomato paste. Add enough water to cover beans and vegetables and make soupy. Stir in olive oil, then season with salt and pepper. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat.

Reduce heat to low. Cover and simmer, stirring occasionally, about 5 hours.
