Southern Ham Stew

A Southern Ham Stew is the embodiment of the southern states. This dish is so full of flavours and when served with bread creates a welcoming main dish on a cold day. If you can’t get hominy then chickpeas are a perfect substitute. A set this up in my slow cooker in the morning and when I get back from work, its virtually ready. Perfect for people on the go.
