No, Navy Beans are small dry white beans. Probably tastes the same as the ones your mom made, though.

If you don’t, smoked turkey wings, drumsticks, or even necks are usually available soon after the turkey holidays, and do as well. Some chicken broth makes it richer, and an insta-pot cuts the cooking time at least in half. I’ve also picked up frozen whole turkeys for as little as $.10 a pound or even free, using store points. A free turkey can go a long way too, probably farther than you can stand it unless you freeze some to use later. What fresh Hell is this?

Into a crock pot... 1/2 lb ( half a bag) dry lentils -big can ( 28oz? 32 oz?) diced tomatoes -fill empty can with watef, add to pot. - cook until lentils are tender, low or high heat depending on your timing). That's all you need, but can also add fresh spinach, 1/4 cup parmesan cheese ( parmesan reggianno), but adding these takes it out of the "low cost" category. "Behavior accepted is behavior repeated."
