Tenderbelle's 3 Bean & Ham Soup

Submitted by tenderbelle61

"In my search for a way to use leftover Christmas ham, I found recipe #15794 by mandabear. In turn, I think she got it from Mr. Food. Well....I adapted the recipe to fit the taste of my household and this is what I came up with. It is simple to prepare, and delicious...especially the second time around. Enjoy!"
