Really good, but it needed quite a bit more salt.

This soup was delicious and easy to make substitutions. I didn’t have any navy beans so I used pintos; my daughter doesn’t like the texture of celery, so I just added extra onion and carrots in its place. I even cooked it on low in my crockpot – thanks!

This is the first time I have made soup with the ham bone and now I’m wondering what I was thinking not doing it before. This is so yummy! My husband loved the tabasco sauce in it, said it was a very unexpected surprise. Thanks for the great recipe!

Very good. I have never put so many veggies in my navy bean soup but I really liked it and made it a well rounded meal. I also tried it with jalapeno cheedar beer bread (from off this site) and they paired very well together.

This soup is amazing! I added a can of stewed tomatoes though, and it was fantastic!

I tried this soup and it tastes great, was super easy to make and has been wonderful to have during our cold weather spell!

Christine, your soup is great. Navy bean is my dad’s favorite and he’s been sick so I wanted to make him some and deliver it. I replaced about 1/3 of the water with low sodium chicken stock, added a bay leaf and a sprig of thyme with the ham hock. I let that go for about 90 min then removed the bone and removed the bay leaf and the thyme sprig. Added all the veggies and just a bit of ham from the hock (too fatty for my taste) and added some leaner ham I had bought. I let this go for another 60 min. I loved the use of the tobasco and I added lots of fresh cracked black pepper. The flavor was incredible – thanks for sharing your recipe.
