This is a great recipe to use up holiday leftovers. I used the leftover holiday ham. I omitted the onion (not many onion fans around here). I used more veggies than the recipe called for so it was nice and hearty. I used dried parsley flakes because I had no fresh and did not add the caraway seed. But, what really made this soup for me, was the addition of the leftover ham broth! I mixed 2 cups chicken broth, ham broth and enough water to make it all add up to 6 cups. It was VERY good! I have more ham broth left so I will be making this again and freezing it. Very, very good.
