This was a delicious, easy soup! I made it with a few changes, but nothing major. (Skipped the leeks and small onion adding 1/4 c dried onion instead...my daughter hates finding onions in things though she likes the flavor and I've found using dried onion is perfect and soooo easy.) I did chop the bacon THEN fry it up, THEN I cooked the ham in the bacon grease left in the pan adding a little butter and evoo for flavoring. Oh, and I accidentally forgot the parsley. This is a definite keeper imo!

The best ever!! My family loves this recipe and so easy to make too. I make a few changes but if you keep the spices the same, it always turns out great.

My family loves this recipe! The bacon is a perfect touch! I leave out the leaks, add a ham shank, celery seed instead of fresh celery pieces, and a few extra spices (crushed red pepper, cayenne pepper, thyme, and rosemary) and it is delicious!

This was good. I used ham stock instead of water and left out the leeks. I used bacon bits for the bacon. My main problem was my cubed ham pretty much disintegrated. Next time I will add it an hour or so before serving. It needed salt.

I've made Ham and Bean Soup for many years. It's one of my all time favorite soups. This is a great recipe. To "kick it up a bit", I add a large can of petite diced tomatoes and allow it to simmer. A bowl of soup and a slice of crusty buttermilk cornbread makes for a wonderful meal.
