NOTE: Tony's Seasoning may be added for extra taste. Place washed beans, ham, onions and water in a 4 quart microwave-safe casserole. Cover; cook on HIGH in microwave for 2 and 1/2 hours, stirring occasionally and adding more water. Stir in green onions, parsley, garlic and seasonings. Cook on MEDIUM for 1 hour. Serve over Rice. NOTE: To save cooking time, set the beans in a pot of water overnight. Then add all ingredients and cook about half as long. Use your judgement on cooking time.
