Ham & White Bean Soup...

  • 4 cups Water
  • 4 Cups Chicken Broth
  • 4 15oz Cans Cannellini Beans (White Kidney Beans)
  • 2 Cups Cubed Ham
  • 1 Christmas Honey Baked Ham Bone
  • 1 Large Onion - chopped
  • 2 Cloves Garlic - minced
  • 1/4 tsp Pepper
  • 1 Bay Leaf
  • 4 Carrots - chopped
  • 1 Rib Celery - chopped
  • 1/2 tsp Salt
  • 1 8 oz Can Tomato Sauce 
In a large pot, place ham bone, water, broth, spices and veggies.  Bring to a boil, reduce heat and simmer for about an hour.  Add beans, tomato sauce and cubed ham.  Simmer for another 20-30 minutes.  Remove ham bone and bay leaf before serving.       (YUM!!! I am pleased to note that this "soup" was good enough for Calls, Taryn, Owen and EVEN James to admit... GOOD!  Maybe soup "is a meal"!  Although I can't find mom's actual recipe, this tastes exactly like my childhood memories...)
