I have tons and tons of recipes I’ve gathered over the years. Believe it or not, I have even purged {gasp} some of the ones I knew I would probably never make – because they were 1. too complicated 2. required weird ingredients 3. didn’t fit my family’s tastes or 4. because I had other similar recipes.
Ham, Bean and Cabbage Soup
This feeds my soup love .... my deep, sincere love of soup. I don't discriminate - I love 'em all. There is something so comforting in a bowl of soup .... it renders warm and fuzzy feelings.
Ingredients
- 1 small onion, chopped
- 2 carrots, peeled and chopped
- 2 tbsp. vegetable oil
- 2 cups water or chicken broth
- 8 oz. pre-cooked ham or smoked turkey, diced
- 2 cups shredded cabbage
- 1 can (14.5 oz.) diced tomatoes, undrained
- 1 tsp. chili powder
- 1 can (16 oz.) Great Northern beans, drained
- Salt and pepper, to taste
Instructions
- In a large saucepan, saute the onion and carrots in oil until the onion is tender. Add water or broth, ham or smoked turkey, cabbage, tomatoes and chili powder. Bring the mixture to a boil. Lower heat, cover and simmer the soup for 15-20 minutes. Add beans, salt and pepper. Continue to simmer for 20-25 minutes or until the cabbage is tender.
- Serve.

Great looking soup… I blog about simple living and the hardest thing for me to keep to a minimum are recipes. I think your purging reasons are right on. Thanks for sharing this on foodie friday.
That looks absolutely amazing. I am a soup lover too, and also a recipe hoarder, and have recently moved on to bigger and better hoarding…..Pinterest! LOL!! And I won't mention the boxes and boxes of cookbooks and recipe clippings that sit among me. This is a great recipe to share at Foodie Friends Friday. Thank you!

Jamie,
HA! A fellow recipe hoarder here 🙂 I know what you mean about purging recipes. I have stacks of pages I print out every day from blogs and I so need to go through them and only keep the ones I REALLY intend to try. This soup is delicious looking so I'll probably be adding one more to my stack! Thanks! If you ever find that 12 step program, sign me up 🙂
Thanks so much for linking up to Creative Thursday. Can’t wait to see what you share this week! Have a wonderful week.
