Very close to my mom's ham and bean soup. *Update 2/5/08* My mom called and said she never used a bay leaf in her soup so if I'm going to keep her name on this recipe I need to remove the bay leaf :-) - I always listen to my mom (well at least now!) Ingredients:
2 (15 1/2 ounce) cans great northern beans (rinsed & drained) |
2 medium carrots, diced |
1 small onion, chopped |
2 tablespoons butter |
2 1/4 cups water |
1 1/2 cups cooked ham, cubed |
1/2 teaspoon salt |
1/4 teaspoon white pepper |
Directions:
1. Mash one can of beans and set aside.
2. In a large saucepan, saute the carrots and onions in butter.
3. Stir in the water, ham, seasonings and whole and mashed beans and cook over medium heat until heated through.
