This soup was very easy to make and it was so flavorful! I used smoked ham hocks instead of country ham and it gave the soup a nice smoky flavor.

I made this soup last night and it was a hit with my family! The ham and tomatoes gave it a really rich flavor. I will definitely be making this again.

This soup was a little too tart for my taste, but I think that's because I used unripe tomatoes. I would definitely recommend using ripe tomatoes if you want a sweeter soup.

I'm not a big fan of green tomatoes, but this soup was actually really good! The sweetness of the tomatoes balanced out the saltiness of the ham perfectly.
