So, I had left over ham from dinner last night. I usually will make a quiche with leftover ham-we love quiche. However, I made this ham chowder recipe with it. It was super easy and really good. It has lots of vegetables along with the ham. The seasonings give this chowder an extra good flavor and the grated cheese on top makes it perfect.

I love to dice up my leftover ham (turkey or chicken too), freeze it and then it is ready for super quick meals later on. I always make too much food-especially for holiday dinners. The leftover ham and turkey are so helpful for quick meals on busy nights.

Instructions for Ham Chowder:

Place butter, minced garlic, diced onion, sliced carrots, and sliced celery in a large pot to cook. Stir continually until vegetables are nearly tender.

Next, add the flour to make the thickening for the soup. Stir to combine.

Then, add Half and Half, chicken broth, and spices to the vegetable mixture in the large pot and bring to a boil, stir well to combine all of the ingredients.

Finally, add diced potatoes, drained corn, and diced ham. Reduce the heat and allow the soup time to simmer with a lid on-until vegetables are tender. Make sure you stir frequently so it doesn’t burn on the bottom.
