My husband is a "Soup Nut". The first time I made this for him, he ate most of the pot, so now I double the recipe. It has become one of his favourites. I have already doubled the recipe for you to enjoy. I usually make this the day after we have had a Honey Glazed Ham dinner

Time 35m

Number Of Ingredients 7

4 c frozen hash brown potatoes
4 c cauliflower, small florets
1 c chopped onion
2 c chicken broth
1/4 c all purpose flour
6 c milk
4 c diced cooked ham

Steps:

  • 1. Combine potatoes, cauliflower and onion in a large pan. Add chicken stock and bring to a boil. Reduce heat, cover and simmer 10 to 12 minutes.
  • 2. Blend in flour and then gradually stir in milk. Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly until mixture just comes to a boil and thickens.
  • 3. Stir in ham and turn heat so it just simmers.
  • 4. I like to let it simmer for an hour or more to let the ham flavour come through. Serve with a nice crusty bread.
