Perfect for that leftover ham or use Thrive Life freeze dried chopped ham. This soup is filling with a ton of veggies! Herbs de Provence is a perfect match for salty ham in a light cream broth. Add a touch of shredded cheese or add Thrive Life shredded cheddar at the end of the cooking time. Use 1 cup freeze dried ham or 1 1/2 cups leftover ham. You can also add corn which I did for my kids. If you like a creamier soup, add more Instant Milk or cream at the end.
