The picture does not do this any justice. But just take my word for it, it will be good. Boiled off the last of the ham from the ham bone last night, and tonight I am making the bean soup.
I have Great Northern and pinto beans in there. Carrots. Onions. Garlic. Mushrooms. Diced tomatoes. Tomato sauce.
Spiced it up with garlic powder, oregano and Italian seasoning, and a little salt and pepper, and a touch or two of chicken broth.
Most likely we will serve with some crushed saltine crackers and shredded cheese. I think this will be good.
What's going on your dinner plate tonight?

@TheHorse I always have some cans on hand and love to eat it often. I got a good brand Brookdale from Aldi and so I stock up.

I never made bean soup before as I am not much of a fan of bean soup, though I have ordered it a few times when we went out for dinner. I do like pinto beans though and use them in my omelette. Goya is the brand I get.

@porwest I never thought of it until fairly recently. I really like it. I usually get pinto beans. But I also love pigeon peas. I wonder why they are called that way. They are green but they are not even peas. What does pigeon have to do with it?

@LindaOHio I don't eat a lot of beef anymore either. Not nearly like I used to. Anymore it's pork, chicken, fish, and beef...in that order.
