Cooking Instructions
Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Creamy Green Bean and Ham Soup.
Step 1
To create a delicious ham and vegetable soup, start by grabbing a large saucepan or soup pot.
Step 2
Pour in some water and add in your chopped ham, fresh green beans, cubed potatoes, and sliced onions.
Step 3
Turn the heat up high and bring everything to a lively boil, filling your kitchen with mouthwatering aromas.

Once itβs bubbling away, reduce the heat to medium-low and let the soup simmer gently for about 45 minutes.

This is the perfect time to relax and let the flavors meld together while the ham and veggies become wonderfully tender.
Step 6
As the soup simmers, keep an eye out for any excess fat that might rise to the surface; simply skim it off to keep your soup light and flavorful.
Step 7
When the time is up, stir in some rich cream to add a velvety texture, and season it with salt and pepper to suit your taste.
Step 8
Now, itβs time to ladle this comforting soup into bowls, serve it hot, and enjoy every warm, hearty spoonful!.
