Split Pea Soup Recipe

Since winter seems to be here to stay, I’ve decided to share with you today a delicious and comforting soup recipe: my Split Pea Soup Recipe. This soup takes about 15 minutes to prepare, and is full of nutriments and protein.  What’s great about using split peas is that you don’t need to soak them overnight, you just rinse them, and they’re ready to be used. Split peas make this soup so creamy and tasty.

I served this soup for supper last night accompanied by my delicious paninis (here is the link to the recipe Panini sandwich and Cajun Mayo Recipe). It’s always appreciated by everyone in my family, especially the kids!

I love the fact that this recipe makes enough for the kids lunches for the week, I just heat the soup it in the morning, put it in a Thermos, and I know my kids are getting a hot and healthy meal they love.

Enjoy!

    My husband always wants me to make this but I’ve always thought it looked and sounded gross. Now that I’ve read your recipe it may not be so bad and I might have to make it. Thank you !!
