This is an excellent soup & so easy to make. The only thing I did different was add garlic while cooking the onions & carrots. Also the serving are way off, I doubled the recipe & there is no way it would that it was 12 servings.

Great dinner or lunch! I like to put all of the ingredients in the crockpot before I go to bed...ready when I wake up the next morning! Only change- turkey ham. It's great to freeze in individual sized containers for pack-and-go lunches. Yum!

This recipe was a great way to use up some leftover turkey ham and baby carrots. The only thing I added was minced garlic. I also substituted half of the water for broth. Turned out nice for a quick supper.

This is a lovely, comforting soup. It is hearty enough for dinner when accompanied by warm cornbread (or garlic bread). It needs no modifications other than to perhaps cook a little longer so the flavors can really combine, the ham flavor is the star.

Great but of course, I had to add to it. I added celery in with the carrots and onions, worchestershire, galric, smoke flavoring, and I used a can of Rotel mild chilies and tomatoes. Vegetable broth instead of the 2 cups of water and cooked it all together for 2 hours like some other's did.

Rating the second time 2/15/09: I made this again exactly as recipe directs (with water, no potato). Oh my gosh, was it ever salty! It was so salty, I couldn't eat it! I think the problem is the quality of the ham I have used. Store-bought hams are so inferior to mail-order hams or farmer's market hams. What a shame. This recipe would be perfect for us otherwise. REVIEW FROM 2/2008: My boyfriend loved this and we had as a meal with bisquits. I used extra ham and 2 full cans of chicken broth rather than just 2 1/4 cups. This way I don't have to freeze the remaining broth. I added one cubed russet potato to compensate for the extra broth, did not add any additional salt and let the soup simmer for 3 hours after bringing to a boil. The soup was fine, but I found it salty. Definitely use low-sodium broth! Next time I make this, I would add up to 3 potatoes if you use 2 full cans of low-sodium broth. The recipe is average but it is quite suitable for a weeknight menu when you are short on time.

This is my first attempt at homemade soup and it came out fantastic! I made changes as others suggested though, used low sodium chicken broth instead of water, added celery and minced garlic to the carrot-onion saute', I used dry beans that I soaked over night, and didn't bother mashing any. I cooked this covered for about two hours. My husband could not stop raving about this recipe, will be making again!

I'm cutting back on my food intake (the holidays really mess me up) so it was nice to make something that tastes great and isn't too high on the calorie mark. I doubled this recipe and used 4 cups of liquid total. I had a cup & a half of some chicken broth in the freezer so I used that and the rest was water. I let this simmer (covered) for two hours on the stove which made it taste just as good the 'first day' as the delicious leftovers.

Made this recipe last night and it was great. I didn't mash any of the beans and the soup still had a great consitency. My husband, who usually doen't like bean soups, said, "This recipe is a keeper!"

Fantastic recipe for when you need a hearty soup don't have the time to boil the beans. I made this triple the recipe to use all our leftover Thanksgiving ham and it took about 10 minutes. My family loved it and the leftovers were even better. It is so simple that you safely alter it however you desire to meet your own preferences.

Ham & Bean soup is my husband's favorite, and I've never made it for him until yesterday when I made this recipe. This soup is divine! I doubled it as I wanted leftovers, and I bet it tastes even better today! Some changes I made; used chicken broth for half of the water called for, added some fresh minced garlic with the onions and carrots. I added a couple drops of hot sauce and simmered it for about 2 hours so all the flavors could blend. Thanks for a great recipe! And it's easy too!

I made this recipe for my husband (who hates beans) on a cool fall evening. He loved it so much he took seconds and he has even requested it on other occasions. I served it to a friend as well, and she requests it now whenever we have a potluck!!
