Instructions

In a large pot over medium heat, melt the butter. Add onion, carrots, salt, and pepper. Stir. Cook for 10-12 minutes, or until the onion and carrots start to soften.
Add garlic. Sprinkle the flour over the vegetables and stir well. Continue cooking for another minute.
Pour in the chicken broth, milk, and Worcestershire sauce. Stir to combine.
Add the ham and beans. Stir to combine.
Reduce heat to medium-low and simmer, stirring occasionally until thickened, about 15-20 minutes.
Remove the pot from heat. Stir in the shredded cheddar cheese until fully melted and smooth.
Serve, garnished with parsley and more cheese if desired.
