Serve hot with bread or sandwiches. The soup is extremely filling and hearty. A lot will go a long way. Garnish with shredded cheese, bacon pieces or crushed crackers.

Slow Cooker Split Pea Soup Slow Cooker Split Pea Soup
My wife and I love Split Pea Soup. The weird thing is that I hate peas by themselves. I will systematically remove them from anything that has them. We took an old recipe that she has had for a while and converted it to the slow cooker.After a few tries and tweaks, we have worked out all the kinks and made a great soup. It is so good and it will thicken as time passes. It goes great with some rolls to dip into it. One of the best split pea soups that I have ever had. I am sure that this can be made into a vegan dish, by taking out the ham and replacing the chicken stock with vegetable. Worth the try.This is the prototypical slow cooker recipe. You just put all of the ingredients into the slow cooker, set the time, and forget about it for 8 hours. You can try to forget about it, but the smell will drive you crazy those 8 long hours. Be strong, the wait will be worth it.Enjoy! J.A.B. -
