HAM BONE SOUP

Ham Bone Soup image

Made this up after winning a ham at the company Christmas party. I'm not a big ham or soup fan, but the ham turned out pretty good and I thought I'd experiment with a soup to use up some of the leftovers. I couldn't find a recipe I liked, so I basically combined three recipes I found on 'Zaar. I'm a picky eater - don't like carrots or many types of beans - which is why I didn't stick to the navy bean/pea/carrot type recipes. I used cornstarch to thicken which didn't work very well. Another recipe recommended the potato flakes (which I don't have). I made my ham with looneytunesfan's Brown Sugar Honey Baked Ham recipe (#151563). The soup seemed sweet to me and I'm guessing it's because of the sugary ham. I think it turned out pretty good so I thought I'd share. Feel free to experiment or make suggestions. I'm more of a baker than a cook! :)

I was really looking forward to trying this soup, but I was disappointed. The broth was too salty and the vegetables were mushy. I won't be making this soup again.

This soup was a bit bland for my taste. I think I'll add some extra spices next time.

This soup was a bit too salty for my taste. I think I'll reduce the amount of salt next time.

This soup is a lifesaver! I had a leftover ham bone and didn't know what to do with it. This recipe turned out to be incredibly easy to follow, and the soup was absolutely delicious. My family loved it!
