NOTE
Look for packages of dried bean soup mix, a combination of different varieties of dried beans, lentils and peas, with other dried beans at your grocery store. Pick out any kidney beans before starting this recipe. Dried kidney beans contain a toxic level of lectins and need to be boiled for at least 30 minutes to make them safe to consume—most slow cookers don't get that hot.
