Basic Ham and Bean Soup

Reviewed: Jun. 16, 2008
I was searching for a use for the left over Honey Baked Ham we had. I was skeptical but thought I would try this... WOW!!!! My husband can't stop talking about how good this soup was and even my kids (6, 4 and 18 months) gobbled it up and asked for more. This week I am buying another ham for the sole purpose of making this soup again! Thanks for the fabulous recipe!

African Curry

Reviewed: Nov. 12, 2007
My husband and I thought this recipe was terrific! Although I did forget to add the lemon at the end- Possibly because after tasting it in the pan we just couldn’t wait to get it on our plates! I did make one changes only because I did not have a can of whole tomatoes on hand I used a can of “Ro*tel” (tomatoes and green chilies) instead. I wasn’t sure about doing it since it had the added green chili but I had no other choice. I am sure this added to the spiciness. I also want to mention that I use Red Curry spice from McCormicks (I do love to cook but don’t consider myself all that experienced/knowledgeable so maybe someone else can clarify- is red curry spicier than traditional yellow curry spice?) I have used regular curry spice before and don’t remember it being so spicy. I doubt the can of rotel alone would increase the heat of this dish this much on its own. We love spicy food so I was delighted with the flavor these changes provided. Especially after I read reviews stating that the dish was bland. No blandness here- My nose was running, my tongue was burning and my body temp was rising as I finished my second helping! This will go into the regular rotation at our house!
