Crockpot Ham and Bean Soup
This hearty ham and bean soup is full of flavor and so easy to make. It is a great way to use up holiday ham leftovers!

Ingredients:

Ham. I used the remains of our ham shank but any ham will work

16 oz dried beans, any will work

1 large onion chopped

1 1/2 -2 cups carrots chopped

4 cups chicken broth

2 cups water

1 tsp rosemary

1/2 tsp thyme

1/2 tsp paprika

1 Tbsp minced garlic

a couple bay leaves

salt and pepper to taste

Add all ingredients to crockpot and cook on high for 4-5 hours or until the beans are tender. You can mash some of the beans and veggies up once it is cooked for a little thicker consistency.
