I wanted to make something hearty and healthy for my toddlers. The bone broth takes some time to stew... I like to let it cook overnight and then prep the rest of the soup the next day. You can always substitute the bone broth for packaged chicken or bone broth from store to save time.

Steps

6 or 3 hours

1

Put the beef bone with ginger slices in 8 cups of water in the slower cooker, cook overnight for at least 8-12 hours, on LOW
2

Allow the soup to cool down enough for you to take the bone out of the broth, scrap of any meat on or inside the bone. Put the meat back into the broth. Discard the bone or gave it to your dog as a treat!
3

Put split pea in the broth, cook for 2-3 hours on high
4

Add the remaining ingredients to the soup and cook another 3 hr on LOW (or 2 hr on HIGH), until the veggies are tender.
