Healthier Delicious Ham and Potato Soup image

This soup was great, so creamy. I add some carrots and green beans to it and it has a little more fiber and a little more heartiness to it.

This soup was delicious! I made it for my family and everyone loved it. It was so easy to make and it's a great way to use up leftover ham. I will definitely be making this soup again.

I've made this soup several times now and it's always a hit! It's so easy to make and it's always delicious. I love that it's a healthier version of ham and potato soup, but it still has all the flavor. I usually add a little bit of extra vegetables
