Ingredients

1 meaty ham bone
3 potatoes, diced
2 cups carrots, sliced
2 small onions, diced
2 (15 ounce) cans cannellini beans, drained and rinsed
8 cups chicken broth or water
2 bay leaves
½ teaspoon garlic powder
½ teaspoon thyme leaves
½ teaspoon black pepper

Instructions

Combine all of the ingredients in a large slow cooker. Stir everything around the hambone to combine.
Place the lid on the slow cooker and cook on low for 9 to 10 hours or cook on the high setting for 4 to 6 hours.
Before serving, remove the hambone and bay leaves. Remove the meat from the bone, cut the meat into bite size pieces, and return to the soup.

Notes

Freezer Tip: Cool the cooked soup and place in freezer safe bags or airtight containers for up to 3 months. To prepare: For best results, thaw the soup in the refrigerator overnight. Warm in a stockpot over medium heat on the stovetop or in the microwave.
