Split Pea Soup
Posted in /Cooking/Entrees/Slow_Cooker on Sunday, September 10, 2017
This to me is the flavour of winter and while I can't make this over the wood stove like my Mom used to during a power outage. The slow cooker is a great way to make this meal.
Ingredients
16 ounces dried split peas
2 cups diced fully cooked lean ham
1 cup diced carrots
1 medium onion, chopped
2 garlic cloves, minced
2 bay leaves
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon pepper
5 cups boiling water
1 cup hot milk
Directions
1. In a slow cooker, layer the first nine ingredients in order listed (do not stir).
2. Cover and cook on high for 4-5 hours or until vegetables are tender.
3. Stir in milk.
4. Discard bay leaves before serving.
