This one is simple and inexpensive. My husband liked it a lot. He walked in while it was cooking and said, Mmm . Normally, he would not touch split pea soup. It's practically vegetarian too-no bacon or ham hocks to touch-and yet still tastes great. Biscuits go really well with this. In fact, I think you need them to make a filling meal. Ingredients:
1 lb dried split green peas |
4 (16 ounce) cans low sodium chicken broth |
4 stalks celery, chopped |
4 carrots, peeled and chopped |
1 medium onion, chopped |
1 tablespoon olive oil |
1/4 teaspoon pepper |
1 bay leaf |
salt, optional and to taste |
Directions:
1. Sort and wash peas. Put them and everything else in a large pot.
2. Bring to a boil, then lower heat and simmer for two hours, stirring often.
3. Remove bay leaf before serving. A very little salt or salt substitute enhances the flavor.
