Slow Cooker Ham and Noodle Soup

Step 1

Add all the ingredients except the pasta and the 1 pound of ham to a slow cooker.

Step 2

Just add enough water to cover the ham bone, too much water will make a weaker stock. We used approximately 8 cups of water for this size ham bone. Set on high and cook for 6-8 hours

Step 3

Remove and discard the ham bone and the onion quarters.

Step 4

Taste the stock for seasonings, then add in the pound of reserved ham and pasta.

Step 5

Stir, cover and cook on high for an additional 30 minutes.

Step 6

Garnish with the chopped parsley if desired.
