We have a ham bone in our house, and no, I'm not talking about Ian. Perhaps you have one left from your Easter feast, too. I love this yummy recipe, a change-up from typical takes on ham bone soup I've had before. Lots of the ingredients are things I keep handy in my pantry and food storage, and you probably do, too.
Ingredients
- 1 ham bone with some meat
- 1 onion, diced
- 1 (14.5 ounce) can peeled and diced tomatoes with juice
- 1 (15.25 ounce) can kidney beans
- 3 potatoes, cubed
- 1 green bell pepper, seeded and cubed
- 4 cups water
- 6 cubes chicken bouillon
Directions
Place the ham bone, onion, tomatoes, kidney beans, potatoes, and green pepper into a 3 quart or larger slow cooker. Dissolve the bouillon cubes in water, and pour into the slow cooker.
Cover, and cook on High until warm. Reduce heat to Low, and continue to cook for 5 to 6 hours. Serves 4.
I added a bay leaf and carrots, left out the peppers per Scott's specs, and doubled the recipe to the extent my average-size slow cooker allowed. I found this recipe at allrecipes.com, my new favorite cooking site.
