This turned out great without the Macaroni. I added some frozen Okra.

This is great! I also added some dumplings!

Just made this recipe. It was great, great, great! I added cubed potatoes and used kidney, pinto, and great northern beans. I purposely left some of the fat on the ham, and this added a lot of flavor.

This one is going on my list to make a few times a year!

Oh, and the macaroni sealed the deal -- it was a great addition.

Thanks for the comments, I'll make it this weekend. Assuming that Curt soaked the kidney, pinto and great northern beans overnight? Thanks!

I just made this soup. It was fabulous! The only change I made was I used fresh veggies (I don't purchase frozen). Thanks for the simple and delicious recipe.

This one's a favorite of mine. I add lentils and navy beans

AND of course it's best a day after... too bad it never lasts that long!

This recipe was great and simple. I did not add the beans, as my kids hate beans.

This was wonderful. My family loved it! My husband and 8 yr old had 3 bowls. It was perfect for a cold KY night. I did omit the beans and peas b/c my kids don't like them. I also added chicken soup base to the water. Thanks!

The soup is really good minus the beans. My family liked it and I will make it again.

Awesome! Nothing like simplicity and of course, home cooking! Thanks for sharing :)

This is an excellent recipe. I doubled it and substituted 1 can of pinto beans and 1 can of navy beans for the extra lima & black eyed peas, all of them undrained. It's also good with a couple dashes of Frank's Red Hot in your serving bowl.

My mom and grandma made this soup, Always been my favorite. I add a cup or so of rice to it even. We like rice and it's a different way for us to eat it. It cooks in the pot just fine. And leeks we prefer over the potatoes. I pre saute them ofcourse.Thin sliced. My sister adds some parsley and mushrooms fresh sliced and peppers. Gives it extra tang she says.

This was amazing! Thx!

This recipe is easy and delicious. I didn't put in lima beans or black eyed peas and the corn was fresh, not frozen. Also I added potatoes. Husband and I loved it!

This was one of the most delicious soups I have had, I substituted canned kidney beans for the lima beans and frozen peas for the black eyed peas. Delicious!

Fabulous recipe! I was looking for a new ham bone soup recipe a few months back and found this one. SO easy hearty and filling. I am looking forward to making it again. I cut down the amount of macaroni I put in.
