A couple of weeks ago Mimi's Cafe sent me its plans for Easter Day, and along with it a recipe that helps get rid of leftover ham in a tasty way, ham and navy bean soup. Of course, it would be just as good, maybe better, after Thanksgiving or Christmas.

HAM & NAVY BEAN SOUP
1 pound navy beans
8 cups water
2 cups celery, diced
1 cup onions, diced
2 cups carrots, diced
3 cloves garlic, minced
2 teaspoons dried thyme
1 bay leaf
1 ham bone
2 (16-ounce) cans chicken broth
3 cups ham, diced
1. Rinse and sort beans in a large pot.
2. Combine beans with hot water and bring to a boil; boil for 2 minutes.
3. Remove from heat, cover and let stand 1 hour; drain water and rinse beans.
4. Combine all ingredients in large pot; bring to simmer.
5. Gently simmer for 45 minutes to 1 hour.
6. Remove bay leaf and serve.
Serves 12.
