Instructions Jump to Ingredients ↑

  1. Chop veggies and meat, then combine everything in a large stockpot -- going VERY EASY on the salt as your ham and bouillon might be salty enough already (you will test and add more later if needed).

  2. Stir, then bring to a boil over high heat.

  3. Don't walk away from the pot.as soon as it comes to a boil,stir, then lower the heat to low and drop a lid on the pot, venting just a bit for a few minutes so you don't have a boilover.

  4. As soon as the temperature drops enough to avoid a boilover (a few minutes), go ahead and let the lid sit fully on top of the pan.

  5. Let cook on low, covered, for about 1 1/2 hours,stirring once or twice, until all veggies are tender.

  6. Give the finished soup a taste test and adjust salt and other seasonings as needed.
