Recipes Soups, Stews and Chili Recipes Soup Recipes Beans and Peas Ham and Navy Bean Soup 4.5 (211) 155 Reviews 30 Photos This navy bean soup recipe is the best use I have ever found for a leftover ham bone! Be sure to save the pan drippings from the cooked ham — chill them so you can remove the fat and use the good-tasting juices to add even more flavor.
