Cheesy comfort food becomes creamy soup in this fun recipe that will bring everyone to the table at dinnertime. Rather than simple elbow macaroni, use Oklahoma-made Della Terra pasta, which has a distinct homemade flavor. Adding broccoli to the soup adds both color and nutrition, but if you’re not a broccoli fan, it’s no problem to leave it out. Two types of cheese round out the flavor of this macaroni and cheese you’ll eat with a spoon.

Scale
4 ounces uncooked Della Terra Creste di Gallo pasta
1 1/2 cup chopped onion
1 celery stalk, chopped
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 tablespoon Hiland Salted Butter 2 tablespoons Shawnee Mills Flour Salt and fresh pepper, to taste
2 cups (about 10 ounces) broccoli florets, chopped into small pieces 2 tablespoons parmesan cheese
1 1/2 cups Hiland grated sharp cheddar cheese
Boil pasta in salted water until al dente, according to package directions. Drain and set aside. 2. Chop onion, carrot, celery and garlic.
In a large soup pot or dutch oven, melt butter. Add chopped vegetables and saute on low heat until soft, about 5 minutes. Add flour and freshly ground pepper to the pot, and stir until smooth. Slowly add chicken broth, milk, nutmeg and dry mustard, whisking constantly. Set heat to medium-low and let it come to a slow boil. Cover and cook on low about 10-15 minutes.
Add broccoli florets and parmesan cheese, and stir well. Adjust salt and pepper to taste. Cook uncovered until broccoli is cooked, about 5 minutes. Remove from heat and wait until it stops boiling. Add cheddar cheese a little at a time, mixing well until cheese melts.
Return the cooked pasta to the soup and mix well. Serve right away so the pasta doesn’t absorb all the broth.
The combination of ham with beans comes together perfectly in this hearty soup. Round it out with a loaf of French bread for a complete meal. This soup makes a lot, so it’s a good choice when feeding a crowd. Or, package it in small containers for lunch.

Ingredients
Scale
2 1/2 cups white beans, canneilini or great northern
2 quarts water
2–3 lb Schwabs smoked ham hocks or shanks
2 teaspoons Herbs De Provence or Italian Seasoning
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 cup diced onions
2–3 garlic cloves, minced
1 cup diced celery
2/3 cup chopped carrots
1 teaspoon Tabasco Sauce
2 teaspoons Daddy Hinkles Onion And Garlic Seasoning
Salt And Pepper
Fresh Parsley
Fill a pot large enough to hold the beans with water, and bring to a boil. Turn off the heat, add the beans and soak the beans for about 2 hours. Drain the water.
Make the ham broth while the beans are soaking in step 1. Put the ham shanks or ham hocks in a separate large pot and cover them with 2 quarts of water. Add the herbs de Provence or Italian seasoning. Heat on high heat until the water comes to a simmer, then lower the heat, partially cover and maintain the simmer for about an hour.
Heat olive oil in a small sauté pan on medium high heat. Add the chopped onions, and cook until translucent, about 5 to 6 minutes. Add the minced garlic and cook a minute more.
Once the ham hocks or shanks have been simmering for an hour, add the drained soaked beans from step 1, the onions, garlic and the chopped celery and carrots. Cook for another 40 minutes or so, uncovered, until the vegetables are soft and the ham meat easily pulls away from the bone. Remove the ham bones from the soup and pull off any meat and return it to the soup. Discard the bones.
Add several drops of Tabasco to taste. Add salt and pepper to taste. Serve with a pinch of chopped fresh parsley.
This super easy recipe is great to make before heading out the door in the morning. The smell of a homecooked dinner awaits, and with very little effort. It’s a weeknight dinner win! To make it even heartier, serve over Della Terra pasta.
