Ingredients
Cassoulet
1pounddried great northern beans, soaked (see Tip) and drained
1 4-ounce ham hock
2cupshalved and sliced onion
3clovesgarlic, sliced
2bay leaves
1tablespoondried thyme
1teaspoonsalt
1cuplow-sodium chicken broth
1(28 ounce) canno-salt-added plum tomatoes
2poundspork shoulder or pork butt, trimmed and cut into 2-inch pieces
2tablespoonstomato paste
1cupdry white wine
Breadcrumbs
3tablespoonsextra-virgin olive oil
2 ½cupscoarse fresh whole-wheat breadcrumbs
2clovesgarlic, minced
2tablespoonschopped fresh parsley
Directions
To prepare cassoulet: Combine beans, ham hock, onion, sliced garlic, bay leaves, thyme and salt in a 6- to 7-quart slow cooker. Add broth and juice from tomatoes (reserve the tomatoes). Nestle pork into the bean mixture.
Cook tomato paste in a small saucepan over medium-high heat, stirring constantly, until deeply browned in several spots on the bottom, 2 to 3 minutes. Add wine and bring to a boil, stirring to dissolve the tomato paste and release the browned bits from the pan. Pour into the slow cooker. Coarsely chop the reserved tomatoes and spread over the top so the beans are mostly covered.
Cook on High for 6 hours or Low for 9 hours. Remove meat from the ham hock and chop; stir back into the stew. Discard the bay leaves.
To prepare breadcrumbs: Cook oil and breadcrumbs in a large nonstick skillet over medium heat, stirring often, until starting to crisp, 10 to 15 minutes. Add minced garlic; cook, stirring often, for 2 minutes. Remove from heat and stir in parsley. Serve the breadcrumbs over the cassoulet.
Tips
To make ahead: Soak beans and prep ingredients for Step 1 up to 1 day ahead. Prepare Step 2 just before turning on the slow cooker.
Equipment: 6- to 7-quart slow cooker

Nutrition Facts(per serving)
- Daily Values (DVs) are the recommended amounts of nutrients to consume each day. Percent Daily Value (%DV) found on nutrition labels tells you how much a serving of a particular food or recipe contributes to each of those total recommended amounts. Per the Food and Drug Administration (FDA), the daily value is based on a standard 2,000 calorie diet. Depending on your calorie needs or if you have a health condition, you may need more or less of particular nutrients. (For example, it’s recommended that people following a heart-healthy diet eat less sodium on a daily basis compared to those following a standard diet.)
