Steps:

• Layer the potatoes and ham in the bottom of the crock pot. Potatoes take longer to cook, so I always put them on the bottom.
• Layer all other ingredients in and cook on high for 5 to 6 hours or until potatoes are tender.
• Add onions, salt and pepper to taste.
• In a hurry? You can cook this on a stove top, just be sure to microwave your potatoes until they are fully cooked. While they cook combine everything in the pot and add the potatoes.
