1 meaty ham bone
1 -2 cup ham, cubed
1 large onion, chopped
2 -3 carrots, sliced
2 -3 celery ribs, sliced
2 -3 tablespoons ham soup base
8 -10 cups water
1 (15 ounce) can great northern beans, drained

1
Place ham bone, onion, celery, carrots and water in a large stock pot.
2
Bring to a boil and reduce heat to simmer, skimming foam occasionally.
3
When meat is starting to separate from the bone, remove bone and allow to cool.
4
Add bouillon, I used Ham Flavored Better Than Bouillon, garlic salt and pepper.
5
Add beans, whatever kind you like, tomatoes and continue to simmer.
6
Remove ham from bone and return ham to soup mixture along with cubed ham.
7
At this point I recommend you taste test the soup for seasonings, but be careful, it doesn't bite your tongue, it grabs your throat!
8
I served this with corn bread and fresh fried potatoes with bacon & onion. It gets better after a day or two in the refrigerator.
