Ham and Three Bean Soup image

This recipe is easy, healthy, and packed full of protein. My Great-Aunt used to make this all the time. I just revamped it to make it a little more colorful.

Time 1h20m

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 tsp canola oil
3 large carrots, chopped
2 stalk(s) celery, chopped
2 small onions, chopped
2 clove garlic, chopped fine
1 c ham, diced (i use half a ham steak)
4 to 6 c chicken broth, reduced sodium, fat free
1 can(s) black beans, 15 oz. (drained and rinsed)
1 can(s) great northern beans, 15 oz (drained and rinsed)
1 can(s) dark red kidney beans, 15 oz (drained and rinsed)

Steps:

  • 1. Heat 1 teaspoon of Canola oil in a cast iron pot (dutch oven). Medium heat is good.
  • 2. Saute carrots, celery, and onion until translucent. About five (5) minutes
  • 3. Add garlic, ham, and chicken broth. Bring to slow boil.
  • 4. Reduce heat and add three types of beans. (Sometimes I will mash some of the great northern beans first, to thicken the soup)
  • 5. Put on the lid and let it simmer for as long as you need it to simmer. You can eat it right away or let the flavors "marry" first.
  • 6. Enjoy with a big hunk of crusty bread, butter and Table Syrup!

This soup is a great way to use up leftover ham. It's also a very affordable meal to make.

I've made this soup several times and it's always a hit. It's so easy to make and it's always delicious. I love that I can use whatever beans I have on hand.

This soup was delicious! I made it for my family last night and everyone loved it. The ham and beans were so flavorful, and the soup was the perfect consistency. I will definitely be making this soup again.
