Megan's Notes:

Sometimes you just want a comfort food, and ya got all that leftover ham from the holidays! This is a great way to use some of it up. Makes a nice pot o'soup, freeze the leftovers for another time.
My father in law loves this soup! He even heats it up and serves it over rice for a different twist. I had no leftovers the last time I made this because he couldn't get enough!

I will be making this soup again In a couple weeks, I will post pics then!

Directions

Soak beans overnight according to package directions. Rinse well, until water runs clear.

In a large stock pot, combine soaked beans, ham bone, & water. Bring to a rolling boil, then reduce heat and simmer about 30 minutes, or until beans are soft

Remove ham bone from pot. Remove 1/3 of beans, & puree in blender. Return pureed beans back to pot.

Add ham stock, ham, vegetables, seasonings, tomatoes, chicken broth, worcestershire sauce, & lemon juice. Simmer on low heat for 3 hours. Stirring occasionally.

Remove bay leaves before serving.

Corn bread compliments this soup well! Yummy comfort food!
