Ham and bean soup recipes

 

Sometimes I think the recipes made with leftover ham are even better than the original meal and these are no exception. Here are three great bean soup recipes made with leftover ham and your ham bone. The navy bean and pea soup have completely different flavors using all the same ingredients. Add them both to your favorite ham recipes. Enjoy these ultimate comfort foods.

Great recipe and not so difficult to prepare. In order to make it even tastier I added a few slices of jamoniberico de bellota - aka iberico ham or patanegra- thinly cut. Because iberico has a strong and delicious flavor you do not need much, only 50 grams or 1.8 OZ for four people added once the soup is finished.

I always buy my iberico ham from http://buyjamon.com
