With the very cold temperatures in January this soup from Mable Hoffman's Crockery Cookery will warm your family all the way through, and you will love the ease of preparation. I love to serve Irish Soda Bread with pea soup.
Ingredients:
1 lb split peas
1 ham bone (with some meat left on) or 2 ham hocks
1 carrot, peeled and diced
1 onion, diced
1 small potato, peeled and diced
1 link smoked sausage, sliced
1 celery rib, diced
8 cups water
1/2 teaspoon salt (or to taste after soup has cooked)
1/4 teaspoon pepper
Directions:
1. Combine peas, ham bone or hocks, carrot, onion, potato, sausage, celery, water, salt (if using)and pepper in a slow cooker. Cover and cook on Low 8 to 10 hours.
2. Remove ham bone; cut meat off bones, dice meat, and discard bones.Return meat to soup.
3. Taste and add salt, if needed. Serve soup hot.
