BEST HAM AND BEAN SOUP EVER image

Categories     Soup/Stew     Bean     Stew     Dinner     Lunch     Ham     Winter

Yield 12-15 Bowls

Number Of Ingredients 18

1 (20 ounce) package 15 bean mixture, soaked overnight
1 ham bone
2 1/2 cups cubed ham
1 large onion, chopped
3 stalks celery, chopped
5 large carrots, chopped
1 (14.5 ounce) can diced tomatoes, with liquid
1 (12 fluid ounce) can low-sodium vegetable juice
3 cups vegetable broth
2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
1 tablespoon chili powder
3 bay leaves
1 teaspoon ground black pepper
1 tablespoon dried parsley
3 tablespoons lemon juice
7 cups low fat, low sodium chicken broth
1 teaspoon kosher salt

Steps:

  • 1. Soak beans the night before. I also like to cut and chop all my other ingredients the night before, so I can just throw it all in the pot the next morning to simmer for 8 hours. 2. Place the soaked beans into a large pot and fill with enough water to cover by about 1 inch. Bring to a boil, then simmer over low for 30 minutes. 3. Drain. Add the ham bone (place inside cloth tea bag or cheesecloth, as it may fall apart during simmering), ham, onion, celery, carrots, tomatoes, vegetable juice, and vegetable broth. Season with Worcestershire sauce, Dijon mustard, chili powder, bay leaves, pepper, parsley and lemon juice. Pour in enough of the chicken broth to cover the ingredients. 4. Simmer over low heat, stirring occasionally, for about 8 hours. Add more chicken broth as needed throughout the day. Remove the ham bone and season with salt if needed. Continue to simmer for a couple more hours. Remove bay leaves before serving.

This is a great recipe! I've been making it for years and it's always a favorite. I like to add a little bit of brown sugar to the soup to give it a bit of sweetness. I also like to serve it with some crusty bread.

I made this soup last week and it was amazing! I used Great Northern beans and added some chopped carrots and celery. The soup was hearty and flavorful and my family loved it.

This soup is so easy to make and it's so delicious! I love that I can use whatever beans I have on hand. I've made it with Great Northern beans, pinto beans, and black beans and it's always great.

This soup is amazing! I've made it several times now and it's always a hit. I love that it's so easy to make and that I can use whatever beans I have on hand. The flavor is always spot-on and it's the perfect comfort food for a cold day.
