It has white beans, ham, and vegetables (celery, I think). I'm not really sure what the beans are called, but they're white, and the shape of pintos, but smaller. My uncle made it for Thanksgiving, and I also had it at my friend's house once. So yummy. Does anyone know what it's called, or where I can find a recipe?

Sounds like ham bone soup. You boil the ham bone and all the loose ham comes off. You add beans and vegetables. Maybe even some chick boulion cubes. I make it every year,

Seems like Italian Minestrone. You can add a wide variety of vegetables (Zucchine, carrots, celery, etc) and of course beans and ham. Be creative!
