NAVY BEAN (HAM AND BEAN) SOUP
Hearty, thick soup that's a perfect something to do with your leftover holiday ham and bones. Use two bones with plenty of meat on them instead of the ham hocks. I make it every time we have two ham bones in the freezer and once I take most of the meat off, the dogs get the bones for a special treat, so they love when I make this too! Found it on the Food Network site, but I've tweaked it a bit.

Steps:
- Put beans in a large saucepan and cover with 2 inches of cold water.
- Bring to a boil, reduce heat, and summer for 5 minutes.
- Remove from heat, cover, and let sit for 1 hour, then drain.
- Tie herbs into a bundle or wrap in a square of cheesecloth.
- In a large pot, combine herbs, beans, ham, onions, carrots, garlic, and water.
- Bring to a boil, cover, and simmer 1-2 hours or until the beans are tender.
- Turn off heat, remove ham and allow to cool, then cut into cubes.
- Remove herbs and discard.
- Puree about 3 cups or beans with some of the liquid. (I like my stick blender for this, just be careful because it is super hot!).
- Stir puree and meat back into the remaining soup.
- Season to taste with salt and pepper.
- Put in bowls, top with a pat of butter, and serve.

[email protected]I made this soup last night and it was delicious! I used smoked ham hocks instead of regular ham and it gave the soup a really rich flavor. I also added some chopped carrots and celery to the soup and it was perfect.
