Ham Soup

Northern Medical Group Gastroenterology Division Blog Ham Soup

Holidays are behind us and now what to do with all these leftovers. If anyone is like my family around the holidays there is always a ham. I never did much with ham in the past. I would use the ham bone and make pea soup, ham sandwiches, ham over a salad but that was the extent of it. This time around I tried a new recipe that was a success. In it I put the leftover ham as well as the pea greens from the CSA! Ever wonder what a pea green looks like? Here is a pic.

2 cans small white beans
1 onion diced
2 stalks celery diced
2 carrots diced
1 handful pea greens
