This soup made in a slow cooker is a hearty and comforting way to use up leftover ham. This soup is great for cold days because the vegetables are soft and the broth is creamy.
Ingredients: 2 cups diced leftover ham. 4 potatoes, peeled and diced. 3 carrots, sliced. 1 onion, diced. 4 cups chicken broth. 1 cup water. 1 teaspoon dried thyme. 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder. Salt and pepper to taste. 1 cup frozen peas. 1 cup milk. 2 tablespoons cornstarch.
Instructions: In a slow cooker, combine diced ham, potatoes, carrots, onion, chicken broth, water, thyme, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Cover and cook on low for 6-8 hours or until vegetables are tender. During the last 30 minutes of cooking, stir in frozen peas. In a small bowl, mix milk and cornstarch until smooth. Stir milk mixture into the slow cooker. Cover and cook for an additional 30 minutes or until soup has thickened. Serve hot and enjoy!
