Made 1/2 the recipe with all of the veggies. Added the Christmas ham bone to it during the first part of the cooking. Used freshly ground black pepper, needed to add 1/2 cup of water but omitted the salt as the ham brought enough salt to this great recipe. Will definitely be a part of my repertoire for now on!
