This is a really simple soup that tastes great, is healthy and is quite filling. You need to add liquid to it once it's refrigerated as it becomes really quite thick. I sometimes just leave it as is and just heat up and munch away.
Ingredients:
1/2 cup dried yellow split peas
1 onion, diced
2 stalks celery, diced
1 carrot, peeled and diced
4 slices of bacon, diced
4 cups of chicken broth
pepper and salt
Directions:
1. Cook bacon for 2-3 minutes over medium heat in dutch oven.
2. Add mier poix (onions, celery and carrots). Cook until soft, about 6-8 minutes.
3. Add split peas and cook for 2 minutes.
4. Add chicken stock. Bring to boil and reduce heat to medium/low.
5. Cook for about 35-40 minutes. Peas will melt down and dissolve into soup.
6. For finer consistency, zip with hand blender.
