“I knew this recipe was a keeper when my mother-in-law asked for it!” relates Marty Matthews in Clarksville, Tennessee. The hearty soup, chock-full of leftover ham, veggies and cheese, is creamy and comforting. And even though the recipe makes enough to feed a crowd of post-holiday guests, Mary notes, “don’t look for leftovers!”

I used our leftover Easter ham to make this tonight. I didn't have 2% milk so I used 1 cup half-and-half and 1 cup fat free milk. It turned out SO well! I loved that it used up a lot of the food left in our fridge and pantry, too. Definitely a keeper.

I'm sure that this is a good recipe. Its just not one of ours. It was a little too cheesey for us.

Our family loves cheese soup! Even though this was the first time I've used this recipe, I doubled it. I did substitute Velveeta for the cheddar and added a few dashes of hot sauce and a little extra salt and pepper. This is gonna be on hit on this cold winter evening!

Made this as a way to use up leftover Easter ham. Used half Velveeta & half shredded cheddar. Did not add the peas, but did add leftover corn & green beans. Has a very good taste to it & is quick & easy to make.

Made this last night. It was very tasty & a crowd pleaser! Will definitely make this again. Was able to use left over ham from our Easter weekend, but I added more veggies than recipe call for which required a little more water. Also, used 2 cups of chicken broth.

Excellent soup! I used Velveeta cheese instead of cheddar and added more vegetables. I will definitely make this again!

Great recipe!! I have made it many times and everyone asks for the recipe. Great for when you have ham dinner and have leftover ham.
