Ham Soup (Photo credit: Live♥Laugh♥Love) |
Holiday Ham & Potato Soup or Holiday Turkey & Potato Soup
·
- 1 cup diced ham or turkey
- 3 cups chicken broth
- 1– ½ cup mashed potatoes, with or without gravy
- ½ cup to 1 cup chopped fresh or cooked vegetables
- Salt and pepper to taste
Simmer together until heated thoroughly and vegetables are to your preferred level of tenderness. I personally prefer the ham version, with kidney and navy beans*; or ham with leftover rice. I occasionally dice up some jalapeno or other hot pepper to give it my beloved "kick".
*Dried beans must be soaked - sometimes overnight - before being used in a soup or stew. They are tough! Otherwise, use canned versions.
