Split Pea with Ham Soup Recipe
I love split pea soup. When I was a kid, it was really the only way my mother could get me to willingly eat peas. This is one of my favorite soups, especially for lunch with a grilled sandwich on a cold winter day. This is also a great use for left-over ham after the holidays.
Split Pea with Ham Soup Recipe
Olive oil
2 cups of cooked, cubed ham
4 cups water
2 tsp Better Than Bouillon (Kosher or Organic) Chicken Base
1-1/2 cups split peas
Drizzle some olive oil in a large pot over Med High heat and add the cubed ham. Use a wooden spoon to saute and brown the ham. Add the water, Better Than Bouillon Chicken Base and split peas. Give it a good stir and scrape all the brown bits off the bottom of the pot into the soup, then bring it to a boil. When boiling, cover the pot, and lower the heat to Low. Simmer the soup for 1 hour, covered, over Low heat. Serves 4 people.
