Nothing is better than a steaming bowl of this on a cold, stormy winter night. I love to serve this with my Dilly Casserole Bread (#214863)
Ingredients:
1 lb dried split peas
8 cups water
2 medium potatoes, peeled and cubed (can use 2 to 3 cups of frozen hash browns)
2 large onions, chopped
2 medium carrots, chopped
1/2 cup chopped celery (i include some of the flavorable tops as well)
2 cups cooked ham, cubed
1 meaty ham bone (optional but adds a lot of flavor)
5 teaspoons chicken bouillon granules
1 teaspoon dried marjoram
1 teaspoon poultry seasoning
2 teaspoons rubbed sage
1/2-1 teaspoon pepper
1/2 teaspoon dried basil
1/2 teaspoon salt
Directions:
1. In Dutch oven or soup kettle, combine all ingredients; bring to a boil.
2. Reduce heat; cover and simmer for 1 1 /2 hours ot until peas and vegetables are tender, stirring frequently.
3. If using ham bone, remove prior to serving and strip lean meat, chop and return to soup.
