It seems that every year, the day after Christmas immediately sparks a case of the after Christmas blues. All that build up of excitement over in one short day. And all that's left are scraps of wrapping paper, pine needles all over the floor, and the Tupperware full of leftovers.
Well I don't have the cure to the blues but I have something that warm the soul and help with those leftovers! Because let's be honest, no one wants to eat ham sandwiches for 2 weeks.
I give you HAM & BEAN SOUP
1 onion, chopped
1 full stalk of celery, chopped
1 bag frozen carrots
1 1/2 cups chicken broth
1 can cream of chicken soup
2 can Great Northern beans
1 can pinto beans
2 cups chunked ham (truthfully, use as much as you want)
1 tsp oregano
1/2 tsp paprika
Salt and pepper
Let sit in the slow cooker on high for 4 hours - and ENJOY. We laddled ours over 2 rolls left from Christmas, mmmmm.
