Ingredients

  • 1.5 - 2 pounds (approximately 1kg) of ham on the bone
  • 2 medium white potatoes
  • 1 large carrot
  • 2 medium zucchini
  • 1 onion, diced
  • 3 cloves garlic, diced
  • 3 tablespoons apple cider vinegar
  • 2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped
  • 7 cups vegetable stock, ideally low sodium
  • 1 teaspoon fresh chives, chopped
  • Salt u0026 pepper to taste

Instructions 

  • Cook ham bone in your stock in a large pot on a stovetop. Turn the heat to high and bring to a boil, then reduce it to allow the soup base to simmer for 1 hour.
  • Dice carrots, potatoes, and zucchini into small bite-sized pieces. Place in a bowl for later.
  • Take the ham out of the soup and let it cool in a bowl for a couple of minutes.
  • While the ham is cooling, add diced vegetables, apple cider vinegar, onions, garlic, plus salt and pepper to the soup pot. Stir, then increase the heat to boil soup before lowering it again to a simmer.
  • Cut the ham meat off the bone on a chopping board using a sharp knife.
  • Chop the ham into small pieces. Add them to the soup and the fresh herbs (parsley and chives).
  • Cook for 15 - 20 minutes or until the vegetables are cooked.
  • Enjoy!

Notes

  • Although I’ve included my favorite vegetables to accompany the ham bone and vegetable stock soup base, you can substitute them with anything you have in your fridge.
