HAM SOUP AND CORNMEAL DUMPLINGS
This was a favorite of my dad. I have tried to remember how my mother made them, but my cornmeal dumplings are not as tender as hers. Sure wish I had spent more time in the kitchen with her when I had a chance. It is a great way for using up leftover ham.

Steps:

- 2. Add green onions, salt, black pepper, ham, and parsley flakes to broth. Simmer one hour.
