Ham Bone Soup


This is our solution to the problem of what to do with the Christmas ham bone. There are always chunks of meat remaining that are just too hard to get out.
Just put the whole thing in a pot of water.
Add Carrots, Zuccini, potatoes, celery and whatever vegetables you want. A little bit of pepper and perhaps bacon for flavour. Don't add salt as there is enough in the ham bone already.
Then boil it and simmer it most of the day until the meat falls of the bone. Fish the bones out and the serve the soup with some hot buttered toast. Very tasty!
