How do y'all use up your holiday leftovers?

I wasn't raised on canned beans. ONLY dry beans.👍🏻 Just use exactly the same ingredients, do it all in a regular pot, & add proper amount of great northern beans to crockpot. Delicious!!

I have a similar recipe. I use cabbage instead of collard greens. Goes good with corn bread.

Growing up this was a favorite meal. I had so many allergies and this was completely safe for me. Back then, canned beans weren't always available, so my mother always used dry beans. I still do that today, and it's still a favorite meal. Thank you for sharing 🙂

Nothing better than a hot bowl of soup on a cold winter’s day.

Paula, I love watching you, and I am also so impressed with Eddie. Every one needs an Eddie!

Wet hair don’t care! Love it! Thank you we have a TON of ham now 🤍❄️🥰

Good use of leftover ham, collards or beans...Or start from scratch....Thanks for sharing this tasty recipe😋👍

If no leftover ham, cut-up ham steak will also work. Carrots would be great in this too!

A simple cornbread with it, would be complete.⭐

I love soup, I make mine with all kinds of veggies, guess you can call it messed up soup lol sounds better the way I say it Spanish. not much left over after a Thanksgiving dinner nor Christmas . one thing I need to start is making a habit of prepping everything then start cooking cause I feel like I'm all over the kitchen. Happy New Year to all !!!!

Good Morning Paula, i simply had to pause this video because I just love love love ham & bean soup. It's scrumptious. Thank you.

🤗I love Better Than Bouillon bases... much less expensive than canned broth and cubes...one jar makes 32 cups/servings at ~$4.00+/- vs ~$1/can and it's not a store brand...if you ever need to go on a liquid only diet, or not, the broth is delicious and you're not missing or sacrificing taste of a basic broth🤫

Hey Paula! I love the Better Than Bullion products too, but find the chicken a bit intense. Tasting it before you added it was a good thing 💖

We don't care how your hair looks.....just glad to see YOU!!! Merry Christmas!!!🎅👍❤

This Simple Southern Ham & Bean Soup recipe looks so delicious Paula.

In Cuba we have a very similar recipe called Caldo Gallego! Absolutely delicious 😋

I think I will do this for January 1st and use black eyed peas. Thanks for the recipe.

I will be making this .With left over soup we will be making baked beans .But no on the collard greens .Celery and onion carrots small diced .

Today is like 12/30/22 Just made this recipe today WOW ready liked 👍 is my recipe from now On one thing we did was used dry beans on WE LOVE IT ❤️ As well as you . Loved your TV show too. Thanks for this great recipe ❤️ you. GOD-BLESS YOU YOU AND YOURS GOD-BLESS AMERICA 🇺🇸 AMEN 🙏🏻

Yum! Looks delicious! 🤤 Thanks Paula!

Hope Eddie had a great trip up north to visit with his family! I love bean soup, but like you I have always used dried beans, but I'm going to try this much faster method for New Years Eve! And it will be even better once it is paired with some skillet cornbread!

Some celery & a little grated carrot would be so colorful & good 👍

This is exactly how I make my ham and bean soup. I add escarole instead of collard greens.

I was just thinking this morning I should make some bean soup & along comes this recipe!

I was raised on beans and ham and Cornbread..... We had it at least three times a week. Usually with some kind of greens and potatoes. Poke salad was my favorite green.

Paula we love your videos! U make us all feel so welcome ! We don’t care if you are made up or not ! Blessings my friends ! Happiest of Holidays ! Hi Eddie , your the best !Hey Teresa sry thought u were on Vacay!

Love this recipe. Thank you.

I make mine with carrots & celery has well has a ham hoc. Looks good Paula.

Such a creative, quick soup! Love ham/bean soup, and cannot wait to make this quick version with collard greens! Thank you!

Hi! Paula never thought that I would see collard greens with ham and northern beans in a soup but most of all you have canned northern beans I thought that you would use dried beans which using the cans was much easier Good to see you God bless you with good health and happiness to you Happy New year🌻🌲

Love this soup! My kind of comfort food. I love how casual and real you are Paula. You must be the greatest neighbor to have. :)

I have left over ham from easter and was looking for a good way to use it, well here i am! Love Mrs Paula Deen! Americas 2nd mom! Love ya dear ❤

Here in our home we do enjoy a bean & ham soup! Thanks for sharing your recipe. Be well and a Happy New Year!

50°? It will be minus 12 here in Montana! 🥶

Only one thing wrong, no cornbread! Love and best dishes, Paula and Eddie

I love soup and will be making some today. Although I’m now living in Florida I make it less often. But today is a little chilly unusually. I always add smoke turkey leg to my soup.

I never thought of using collard greens in ham & bean soup but it makes sense because of the smoked ham hock so I decided to try it. I usually add a bit of shredded carrot to my soup for color and more nutrition but when Paula suggested greens, well I was all trying that, But I was afraid the greens would alter the flavor of my beloved bean soup. Well it did not. It just added more nutrition and color. Thank you Paula for the recipe!!! And please keep making these videos. You are such an inspiration!!!

A great Boxing Day recipe.🇬🇧

This looks good. I’ll have to pay attention when my grandma makes soup next time

The soup looks delicious

Looks delicious ❤️🎁🎄

Hi Paula I love ham and beans 😋 there's time I fill like ham shanks and northern beans oh! So good with fresh corn bread

Looks great. We still make your Mac n cheese recipe years ago. Yummm

Just needs some cornbread to make this perfect 👌 🍲

Yes great soup. I have been using spinach leaves but will try the other greens.

I'm in the process of making slow cooker ham and bean soup.

Looks delicious love and best dishes Paula and Eddie enjoy your day 😋🌟💜🌟

Wind chills here in Nebraska are -15 to -19 today…this soup looks perfect to me!!!!

Hope your Christmas was great!

Looks sooo delicious 😋

I had to laugh when Eddie said that it was soup weather because tomorrow it’s supposed to be 50 degrees. 50 degrees here you would see people in shorts and sweatshirts. It’s currently 28 degrees with a windchill of 19 degrees here and we are all like there’s a little nip in the air tonight.

Paula I have really enjoyed your videos. Merry Christmas to you and family from Virginia

I love this recipe and I love you Paula!🥰❤️❤️

This is what I absolutely LOVE about Paula's channel. She doesn't care that she doesn't look "Hollywood" perfect all the time. She's REAL, like all of us are. We have days when we feel we look our best and days when "WHO CARES." LOL! The soup looks amazing. I KNOW that's got to be good. Love you Paula, you make my day! ❤️

Love it!!!

I'm making this right now. But I'm using smoked ham hocks and I didn't add the collard greens. I didn't get any but I did use everything else. Will let you know how everything went and how it tastes.

Do y’all ever miss snow? Not that we have a flake here…. 🤣🤪🤦🏻‍♀️☹️ love to y’all from Loveland, Colorado ❤️ Looks amazing!!!

All you need is a chunk of corn bread.

👍🏻❤️Perfect timing to find your channel. I’m so cold right now but the thought of making this is already warming me up! I’ve been really into eating soups lately. I love the presentation of your video. you for sharing! 👍🏻 I make cooking videos too! 🧑‍🍳 I love to be inspired and learn from other talented creators like you.

Paula your such a natural! Thanks for this easy bean recipe. Have a wonderful 2022 Thanksgiving & Christmas 🎄 Barbara from North Carolina

Im so glad you have the KZfaq channel! I make your chicken and dumplings almost weekly! Here in the Midwest is coooold!

WHY do you need chicken stock when you have all fresh great ingredients????? Cook all night in slow cooker!!!!!!!!!!!! Full, plump ham hock!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Onions, garlic. Dried 15 beans. Oh my gosh...MAGIC!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! ALL IT TAKES IS TIME AND QUALITY INGREDIENTS!!!!!!!!!!! AND HAND IMMERSION OR BLENDER!!!!!!!

I like the pink rasberry top. That color looks great on you.

Love this looks delicious.

We miss you mrs.. southern bell.. you are an American beauty. And I at 51 in Florida think you look amazing. ❤

What were you doing in the garden?

In real life, when you need to cook a meal you don't always have time to fancy yourself up. I don't care if you make cooking videos in a bath robe and flip flops, I just want to learn a new recipe 😁

You remind me of my momma!!! Luv your channel!

So, Miss Paula suggests using a little butter as a soup garnish...Of course she does !! 🤣😂

I’ve never eaten collard greens

What is that large blue accessory on the back counter. I thought it might be a crook pot or a bread maker not sure but would love to know what the heck that is. Very interesting looking.

Love u lady ! Love and u make the best dishes ! ♥️Happy Holiday and I will be turning my Christmas ham into this yummy soup , thank u so much . 🤗

Gonna need some cornbread with that...lol

I make it all the time, very similar to hers. But you know what, I cannot find the Campbell's Chunky Hearty Bean & Ham with natural smoke flavoring, can't find it anywhere

Love the recipe. I really miss seeing you on food network. ❤

Paula that looks so yummy and we love us some beans.

Love you girl 🥰🙏

Hi Ms.Paula! I would like to watch you make gooey butter cake cookies.😃😋

Yummy, Wish I had collard greens…. We.re in a snow storm here in Fairbanks, Alaska.

Hay, what was the ticktock I heard in the backroom? You cook very well. Who is filming you?

MERRY CHRISTMAS PAULA DEEN LOVE DAVID

That chicken base has several unhealthy ingredients. We have to start reading the labels to make sure we’re putting a healthiest food in our body. Thanks for sharing.😊

PAULA LOVE YOUR VIDEOS, YOU MENTIONED YOUR HAIR AND I WAS THINKING IT MIGHT LOOK BETTER SHORTER LIKE YOU USE TO WEAR IT. JUST A THOUGHT......

It seems we all have our own versions of bean soup! I also like to add finely diced carrot and celery. I also add refried beans to make a thicker soup! I also put pearl barley in before I thicken it and let it simmer till the barley is cooked, then add the refried beans,. Yummy! You look great, I love the real Paula!

YUMMY TO MY TUMMY

Love soup! We love to add a little 🍋 lemon !

Better Than Bouillon is THE BEST!!

Luv me some paula dean y'all

There's an invention called a blow dryer

NOTHING takes the place of a big g=buttery Ham Hock and 15 bean soup with huge amounts of water, herbs, spices, and cook on low for ever!!! yes. onion and lots of garlic. Then...after water has died down a couple of inches, use hand immersion blender, (take out your bones from your fall off the bones ham hock) add sour cream by the teaspoon per bowl, and enjoy bean puree, as I hate to bite down on beans! Just a few for Ambience!!!! Best, easiest of my dinners, ever!!! Need huge amount of water and loads of hours, over night, in slow cooker is easiest. Hardest part is pulling it out of counter and clean up and putting up!!! Freeze at least half a batch each cooking so you will only have to microwave a mug of this delicious soup! Do not like this collard recipe nor the cubed ham of any type. Use the ham bone!!! At least that would flavor the beans best, and I LOVE the fat of the ham hock!!!!!!! YUM. it gels into your immersion goodness!
