Crock Pot Ham and Bean Soup Recipe {Video}

Today's Slow Cooker Crock Pot Ham and Bean Soup Recipe is perfect for leftover holiday ham or any day of the year.

I love finding new ways to use leftover ham and other holiday items after our big family feasts. You can only eat so many ham and cheese sandwiches or ham and cheese omelets before you are on the hunt for new recipes.

Crockpot Ham and Bean Soup

I, of course, suggest making our Crock Pot Ham for your holiday feast and then using the ham leftovers if there are any to make this delicious soup. 🙂

Do you have any leftover ham recipes that you love to make? I would love to hear about them. I am always on the hunt for ways to spread our food farther and make it taste great again and again.

I have to be honest and admit that I tend to buy multiple hams when they go on sale around Thanksgiving and Christmas. I freeze them so we have them for later in the year.

Make sure and pin this recipe to make sure it is easy to find when you want to make it again!
