This soup is very easy to make, but it's not very flavorful. I would add some more herbs and spices next time.

I'm not a big fan of ham, but I still enjoyed this soup. The potatoes and vegetables were cooked perfectly.

I didn't have any ham on hand so I used bacon instead. It was still good, but I think it would have been better with ham.

I followed the recipe exactly and the soup was too thick. I had to add some extra water.

This soup is a little bland for my taste. I would add some more salt and pepper next time.

I made this soup in my slow cooker and it turned out great. I just threw all the ingredients in the slow cooker in the morning and it was ready for dinner.

This soup is a great way to use up leftover ham. It's also a great soup to make ahead of time.
