Time to Pick a Bone
You can make a good ham and bean soup using just cubes of ham alone, but to get the best flavor you should use a ham bone. You can get your ham bone from the butcher, since they will often give them away or sell them very cheaply, or you can use a leftover bone from a ham that you have served for dinner.

If you are making a ham for dinner, then any leftover ham can be used in the soup as well. In fact, the best ham and bean soup recipes use both ham bones as well as cubes of ham.

This turkey chili is very tasty. My husband doesn't like ground turkey, onions or celery, and he doesn't even know these ingredients are in the chili. He told me yesterday, "Wow honey, this is the best batch of chili you've ever made!" Little did he know it's a lower fat and more flavorful version of the beef dish I've made for years!

A guiltless dinner favorite that's sure to please!

I am not one who measures my ingredients a lot - I am more of the cook who chops and dumps into the pot!!!! So I apologize in advance if I am a little off with the amounts/measurements!!!

This recipe can always be adjusted to taste and seasoning it is up to your imagination!!!

This recipe works great with any type of bean. Beans can be soaked overnight, the water drained and changed and the beans will last for approximately 10 days in the refrigerator. The soaked, yet uncooked beans, can also be frozen so they are ready to use another day. It takes about 1/2 cup of dried beans to make 1 cup of soaked beans.
