The soup is very easy and good, but I'll take a star off b/c I couldn't taste the almonds, and that's an expensive ingredient to waste. Better to toast them on the side for a garnish.

I made this soup with ham left over from the pineapple ham recipe I made and it too was very good. I used the half and half instead of milk and it was creamy and so good and so easy to make. My husband keeps raving about it.Was looking for a recipe for left over ham and this is definitely it! Will make again whenever I make the pineapple ham.
