I added some chopped carrots and celery to this soup, and it turned out great! I also used a can of diced tomatoes instead of tomato paste.

I'm a vegetarian, so I made this soup without the ham. It was still very flavorful and delicious.

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my soup turned out very salty. I think I might have added too much salt.

This soup is a great way to use up leftover ham. It's also a very hearty and filling soup, so it's perfect for a cold winter day.

I followed the recipe exactly, but my soup turned out watery. I'm not sure what I did wrong.

This soup is a bit bland for my taste. I think it could use more seasoning. I also found the beans to be a bit tough.
