Gotta Ham Bone. Need a recipe!
Got a good ham bone with a lot of meat on it left over from Christmas. Just pulled it out of the freezer. Need a good recipe for soup, beans, or whatever I can do with it! Any ideas appreciated...

I`m a one person household with a bum knee so I`m not inviting folks.
Thus, a keeper of a cooking.
Crockpot for sure. Then given that my porch is unheated, I`d keep it there between days.
So, Thoughts:
Stewed tomatoes canned with small amounts of salt, after all the ham has lots of that. The acid of tomatoes helps the `stew` keep longer.
Veggies.
-Onions, maybe up to 2 c. diced and caramelized.
-Cabbage or celery diced. Celery has more `my flavour`, but cabbage keeps longer
-Parsnips rather than carrots. My flavour choice.
-Maybe one potato diced.
All told the ingredients other than the hambone should cover the bone or almost cover the hambone.
One hour on fairly warm temperature, then reduce for 4 or 5 hours of simmering.
This is making me hungry for a hambone.
