See ya leftovers!!

December 1, 2010 By betsy Leave a Comment

Well, that’s a wrap on my holiday leftovers! See ya again in a month after Christmas! Oh crap, I’d better learn some new recipes!

Spicy Ham-and-Bean Soup recipe from Cooking Light

  • 1 1/4  cups  dried navy beans
  • 2  quarts water
  • 1  cup  chopped onion
  • 1  cup  chopped green bell pepper
  • 1  cup  sliced celery
  • 1/4  cup  minced fresh parsley
  • 1 1/2  teaspoons  pepper
  • 2 1/2  teaspoons  minced seeded jalapeño pepper
  • 2  garlic cloves, minced
  • 1  (18-ounce) ham bone (from an 8 1/2-pound cooked low-sodium ham)
  • 2  cups  finely chopped Maple-Glazed Ham (about 9 ounces)
  • 1/4  cup  finely chopped fresh basil
  • 1  (14.5-ounce) can no-salt-added whole tomatoes, undrained and chopped
  • 1  (8-ounce) can no-salt-added tomato sauce

Sort and wash beans; place in a large Dutch oven. Cover with water to 2 inches above beans, and bring to a boil; cook 2 minutes. Remove from heat; cover and let stand 1 hour.

Drain beans, and return to pan. Add 2 quarts water and next 8 ingredients (water through ham bone). Bring to a boil; cover, reduce heat, and simmer 1 hour or until beans are tender. Remove from heat; discard ham bone.

Place 2 cups of bean mixture in a blender, and process until smooth. Return mixture to pan; add ham and remaining ingredients. Bring to a boil; cover, reduce heat, and simmer 10 minutes or until heated.
