Senate Navy Bean Soup image

I can't read my handwritten recipe card that this was written on because of all the spills that landed on it whilst making this delicious, comforting soup. I clipped this from a newspaper (or magazine?) years ago and my husband has since taken over the task of making this soup from any hambone that he can acquire. I do hope you enjoy this as much as we do. :)

This was a great way to use up leftover ham. The soup was thick and hearty, and the ham added a nice salty flavor.
