HAM AND 15 BEAN SOUP

I have been trying several different bean soup recipes and most were very bland. I made this one and it is excellent.

1 (20 oz) bag of 15 bean mixture- soak overnight in cold water
Drain water off.
 Add 2 qts. fresh water and simmer beans until tender- about  an 1 hour or so. Drain.

1 meaty ham bone- add to chicken broth . Or use ham bone and later add 2 1/2 cups cubed ham

7 cups chicken broth

1 large onion chopped
3 stalks celery chopped
1- 28 oz can diced tomatoes with liquid
2 TBSP Worcestershire sauce
1 TBSP chili powder
1 Teaspoon black powder
1 TBSP parsley
3 TBSP lemon juice
1 teaspoon kosher salt

Add above ingredients and simmer 3-4 hours. Cut ham off bone into small pieces.
