Sounds "yummy". When I cook a Cottage Roll or Smoked ham, I save the liquid from it to make soup in. Speaking of which I might use the Cottage Roll I have in the slow cooker this week. Thanks for the reminder, John !
Thanks for the recipe, John. :)
It's the perfect time of year for the thick soups here in Minneapolis, and this is one of my favorites. Yum. :-)
Nice seeing you at my place, John. :-) Stop by any time -- we're friendly up in the Great White North!!

I love any sort of soup with ham in it but I am especially fond of ham and bean soup. And like most soups...it tastes better the next day.
Maria, you can substitute dried beans for the dried peas/soup mix and you do not need to soak them first due to the extended 'slow cooking' peeriod - tho', with dried beans you may need to watch the moisture content and add warm water as required to maintain your desired consistency.
