I first made this soup because I had a lot of ham left over from Easter. I wasn't that familiar with cooking with okra, but it was really delicious in this soup! We have this often during winter, and when I don't have any leftover ham I just buy a ham slice or purchased pre-diced ham pieces in the meat section.
