White Bean and Ham Soup Recipe

I thought the recipe was ok. My ham hocks and parsley spoiled so I could not used most of them in the soup. Then it took awhile longer for the beans to get soft. Other than that, it tastes good with salt and pepper. Next time I will used the recipe right away and use half chicken broth in the soup.

Hearty White Bean and Ham Soup, perfect for cold winter days! White beans, ham shanks, onions, celery, carrots, garlic, Tabasco, and herbs make this delicious ham and bean soup a cool weather classic. Use ham shanks rather than hocks if you would like a meaty soup.
