I LOVE soup and this soup is easily a meal in of itself. It's also a testament to the fact that meat does not need to be added to everything to make it taste great. The beauty of this recipe is its simplicity and it tastes delicious. It is great with some fresh white bread for dipping.
Ingredients:
1 lb split peas (yellow or green)
6 cups water
2 carrots, chopped
2 onions, chopped
2 large potatoes, chopped
2 cups turnips, chopped (rutabaga may be substituted)
4 teaspoons salt
pepper
Directions:
1. Throw all the ingredients into a large pot, bring to a boil, then simmer for about 2 hours, or until the peas have completely softened.
2. Make sure you stir this frequently as it will have a tendency to stick to the pot. Add more water if gets too thick.
