Slow Cooker Pea & Ham Soup (Page 3 ) | August 21, 2024

Instructions:

1. Prep the Ingredients:
   • Rinse the peas: Start by rinsing your dried split peas under cold water until the water runs clear. This removes any dust or debris and ensures your soup has a smooth, creamy texture.
2. Combine Everything in the Slow Cooker:
   • Add the ingredients: In your slow cooker, combine the rinsed peas, ham bone or diced ham, chopped onion, carrots, celery, and minced garlic.
   • Season the soup: Add the bay leaf, dried thyme, and 6 cups of chicken broth. Stir well to mix the ingredients and flavors.
3. Slow Cook to Perfection:
   • Set it and forget it: Cover your slow cooker and set it to cook on LOW for 8 hours. This slow method allows the split peas to soften into a thick, creamy base while the ham becomes tender and flavorful.
4. Final Touches:
   • Finish the soup: Once the soup is done, remove the ham bone (if used) and shred any remaining meat. Return the shredded ham to the soup, discarding the bone and the bay leaf.
   • Season to taste: Taste the soup and season with salt and pepper as needed. Adjust according to your preference.
5. Serve and Enjoy:
   • Ladle and serve: Stir the soup well and ladle it into bowls. Serve hot with your favorite sides, such as crusty bread or a warm buttered roll.
