Notes

Use leftover ham: Many comfort food recipe are made with leftovers, such as turkey sandwiches the day (or the week!) after Thanksgiving for example. This hearty crockpot soup is great with leftover ham.
Watch the salt: If you only have unsalted butter, reduce the salt. Also, keep in mind different hams and different canned broccoli soups vary in saltiness, so don't add too much. You can always season the soup after cooking it.
Make extra: This soup freezes well, so I always make a double batch!
