I'm a vegetarian, so I omitted the ham bone and added some extra vegetables instead. It was still delicious!

This soup is a bit too spicy for my taste. I think I'll add less cayenne pepper next time.

I followed the recipe exactly and my soup turned out way too salty. I think it's because the ham bone I used was too salty.

This soup is incredibly flavorful and comforting. The ham bone adds a rich smokiness that perfectly complements the sweet peas. I added some extra vegetables, like carrots and celery, for a more hearty soup.
