Oh my gosh JennyMidget, this was a fabulous stew. We had fresh-baked rosemary herb rolls with it. It was cooking in crock pot while we were out for my daughter's riding lesson and we returned home to the most inviting smell from the kitchen. And it tasted just as fabulous as it smelled. All of the flavors melded together quite well, but I think it was the seasoning salt and peas that really topped it all off so nicely. I am so glad I ran across this recipe. It was not only a great use of our leftover ham, but it exceeded my expectations and provided a great tasting meal.
