Soup, my favorite soup of all time :)
Soup, my favorite soup of all time :)
I made a similar version to the take-out Split Pea Soup I buy from
Green Cuisine which you may remember from these posts!
Split Pea Soup
adapted from Green Cuisine
5 cups filtered water
1.5 cups dry split peas
2 cups diced onion
1/2 cup diced carrots
1/2 cup cubed potato
1 minced garlic clove
1 tsp sea salt
(or table)
(or table)
a pinch black pepper
a pinch thyme
Directions:
1. Bring water and vegetables to boil in a pot
2. Add split peas, stir, then reduce heat to simmer
3. Partially cover and simmer for 1.5 hours, stirring occasionally
4. Add spices at the end, a few minutes prior to completion
5. Serve, and enjoy!
You may need to add extra water. I find the longer the soup sits, the thicker it becomes.
makes 5-6 servings

Split pea soup is my favorite as well! I've never made it with potato, but I use TONS of thyme and some fresh parsley and it comes out amazing! You're making me hungry for soup now...
Crap, now you made me want split pea soup. I LOVE split pea soup. So fast and easy too! YUM!

Oh my gosh I love split pea soup! In my last post I put up a recipe I made using yellow split peas (but you can use green as well). I really think you would love it. Split pea soups are one of the most comforting soups in my opinion :)
