This is a soup I've loved all my life and always beg my mom to make when I come home to visit. Lots of people substitute ham but I prefer the taste the smoke sausage adds to the soup.
Ingredients:
1 lb dried split green peas
1 lb smoked sausage
2 big potatoes or 3 small potatoes
2 beef bouillon cubes
salt and pepper
5 cups water
Directions:
1. Peel potatoes and cut into 1 inch squares.
2. Add peas, potatoes, water, and beef bouillon cubes to large pot.
3. Boil until potatoes and peas are soft (approx. 25-30 min.).
4. Put contents into a blender and blend until smooth.
5. Pour soup back into large pot.
6. Slice the sausage and add pieces to soup.
7. Cook for about 5 minutes until sausage is done.
8. Salt and pepper to taste.
