This is one of those meals. I have been eating bean soup ever since I was a little kid and do not intend to stop! I dress up northern white beans with a little smoked ham hock, smoked ham pieces, onions, carrots and little salt and fresh cracked pepper. I use jarred 4. 8 ounce jar Randall precooked northern white beans but if you cannot find them you can use dried and soaked white beans. If you are using jarred beans you can make this meal in about 3. It’s that simple! Easy Ice Cream Recipe.

My favorite way to eat this soup is to top it with a few shakes of malt vinegar. Give it a try…it really is delicious! I know it might sound odd but malt vinegar is a wonderful thing.  Random side note – malt vinegar is AWESOME on french fries too…yum! I also learned that northern white beans are the dried, mature seeds of green beans…did anyone else know this? This soup is also a great use for all that leftover Easter ham.

PLUS it freezes beautifully. You know you love that! Easy Ham and Bean Soup. This quick and easy ham and bean soup is packed full of fresh navy beans, smoked ham, carrots and onions. This is the perfect ham and bean soup for winter! Yield: 4- 6 servings.

Prep Time: 1. 5 minutes Cook Time: 4. Total Time: 5. 5 minutes Directions: Add olive oil to 5 quart stock pot and cook carrots and onions until soft. Make sure not to brown the vegetables you just want to them to soften. Add ham and cook for a few minutes on medium low heat. Add ham hock and pour beans with juice into the pot. Add 2- 3 cups chicken stock to pot. You want the stock to cover the beans by about 2 inches.

Some of the stock will cook down while heating up the soup. Cook the soup on medium low heat until it's warm and cooked down a bit, about 3. Season with desired amount of salt and pepper. Optional - When serving top with a few shakes of malt vinegar.*If you cannot find jarred beans you can soak a bag of dried northern white beans in cold water covered overnight. Instead of softening the carrots and onions just put everything in the pot, cover with water or stock and cook on medium low heart until beans are soft but not completely breaking down, adding more stock as necessary. This should take around 1 1/2 to 2 hours.
