I absolutely love winter. I wish I lived in a place where it was cold enough to dress up in sweaters, scarves, and boots, but not cold enough where it snows and makes me miserable. Either way, I know this recipe would stay with me for those winter days I am experiencing. This is hearty, full of beans and so filling. You can swap out the ham for any meat you would like, but adding ham on the bone in there really gives it a lot of flavor.
