Savory Swine Soup


Warm up with this Atwater family favorite and enjoy a pig themed family home evening with your own little pack.

6 large potatoes peeled and chopped
1 head of cauliflower chopped
1 large onion chopped
2 tsps. salt
1 lb. chopped ham
2 sticks butter of margarine
1.5 cans condensed milk

Place chopped potatoes, cauliflower, and onion in large pan along with salt. Add just enough water to barely cover them. Bring to boil and then add chopped ham. Let boil for 5 minutes, and then reduce heat to low. Add butter or margarine. When butter or margarine is fully melted, add condensed milk. Do not dilute. Turn off heat and enjoy! Some people like to add beans and cheese. It's yummy with these also, but it can stand on its own without them.

I know that in the story, the little swine got away. But in this case, the unwise little swine weren't so fortunate, and now your little family of wolves will really enjoy them for dinner. This was a favorite of mine growing up, and I hope it will become a favorite of your family as well.

  1. I love this recipe! Definitely the best ham and potato chowder out there. My hubby and kiddos love it too. I would recommend adding about 1/8 to 1/4 tsp of cayenne pepper just to make this dish completely irresistible.
