5. Add chopped cauliflower and cook on slow cook setting until cooked through.
6. Set to keep warm function. Add diced ham. Use an immersion blender to blend the potatoes, cauliflower, and ham. (if you prefer chunks of ham in your soup, add later and stir until ham is heated)

8. Salt and pepper to taste. Serve your hot with topping of parsley or chives. (can also add chopped bacon bits).
