Ham Bone Soups!

Hey Ya'll wondering what to do with your holiday ham bones?  Here are some recipes:  http://www.ichef.com/news.cfm?itemid=342586 

I hate sawing on the ham bone, but refuse to let that last little bit go to waste : D...so here is the way to make a yummy meal with the meat on the ham bone.  I haven't tried the ones on the link above yet, but have another ham bone that I intend to do so with soon.  My recipe is:

1 pkg Hurst's 15 Bean Soup a.k.a.  HamBeens Brand  (I don't like the seasoning packet, but I use the rest of the recipe on the bag except I use paprika instead of chili powder - my 4yr old doesn't like it too spicy...I do sprinkle some chili powder on there too.)

This makes a yummy meal for those really cold winter nights.  Add some dinner rolls or soda bread to complete the meal.  If you feel like it you can throw some fresh/steamed veggies off in there to for some more nutrients, but the soup has lots of fiber, carbs and protein all by itself!

Enjoy!
