Since Heidi already posted a recipe and I had planned on it, I thought I would give you a great veggie option :)
Tonight we had Yellow Split Pea Soup
1 pounds of Yellow Split Peas
1 small bunch of Green Onions
1/2 pound of Diced Carrots
1 small onion, finely chopped
1 bunch celery (and hearts) chopped
1 can of corn (drained)
4 cups of Veggie Stock
2 cups of Water
Tarragon (to taste)
Salt (to taste)
Pepper (to taste)
Place ALL ingredients in a slow cooker on High for 4 hours or Low for 8+ hours....voila!!!
If your kiddos are hesitant add a dollop of sour cream and make "Creamed Pea Soup"
So, believe it or not, I've never bought split peas before (and I've only seen them with the dried beans before - is that right?). Do you have to do anything to them, or just dump them in right out of the bag?
