A Cold Day Cure
This delicious soup was made from a leftover smoked ham, with a generous amount of meat left on the bone.
What I did:
Place ham bone in medium pot with 2 containers of low sodium, vegetable broth.
Add Chopped: 1 medium onion, 2 stalks of celery, 2 cups of baby carrots, 2 cloves of garlic.
Spice with: 1 tsp fresh ground black pepper, 1 tsp cayenne, 1 tsp red pepper flakes, 1 tbsp of brown sugar, 1 bay leaf
Bring to boil. Lower heat and simmer for 2 hours, until meat is falling off of bone.
Remove bone & bay leaf from pot.
Cut away all remaining meat from bone and return meat to pot.
*If the pieces of meat are very large, slice into smaller bite size pieces
Add: 1 bag each: broccoli slaw, and coleslaw
3 small peeled & chopped sweet potato.
1/2 cup of tomato paste
Continue cooking on low heat for 1 or more hours.
Stir frequently.
Serve and Enjoy!
