Slow Cooker Crock Pot Ham and Bean Soup Recipe

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

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

This soup is super filling and oh so easy to make which I love!

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.
