Follow The Directions

01

Step

In a large pot or Dutch oven, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the diced red onion and sauté until it begins to soften, approximately 2-3 minutes.

02

Step

Incorporate the diced sweet potatoes and minced garlic. Continue to cook until fragrant, about 1 minute, allowing the flavors to meld together.

03

Step

Pour in the water, then add the diced ham and chicken bouillon cubes. Bring the mixture to a boil and let it simmer for 3-4 minutes, allowing the bouillon to dissolve completely.

04

Step

Introduce the broccoli florets to the simmering broth. Cook until the broccoli reaches your desired tenderness, typically 4-5 minutes.

05

Step

While the soup simmers, bring a large pot of unsalted water to a boil. Add the elbow macaroni and cook until tender yet firm to the bite, approximately 8 minutes. Drain the pasta thoroughly.

06

Step

Gently fold the cooked elbow macaroni into the soup, ensuring it's evenly distributed. Serve immediately to savor the delightful flavors and textures.

For an enhanced depth of flavor, consider using smoked ham or adding a pinch of red pepper flakes for a subtle kick.
Feel free to substitute vegetable broth for chicken bouillon to create a vegetarian-friendly version of this soup.
Garnish with a dollop of sour cream or a sprinkle of shredded cheddar cheese for an extra touch of indulgence.
