Ingredients:
1lb green dried split peas
1 meaty ham bone roughly 2lbs (leave out for vegetarian)
3 cups peeled diced potatoes
3 cups diced celery (if you are out of celery but have celery seed that’s fine but 1 cup = 1tsp seed)
2 cups diced carrot
1/2 cup chopped onion
1 1/2 tsp salt
1/2 tsp thyme
1/4 tsp pepper
8 cups water or ham stock
Instructions:
You may want to clean the peas. If you want to speed up the cook time soak the peas overnight in water.
Chop veggies. Add ham bone with water into slow cooker and set for 4 hrs on high or 8 hrs on low. Add veggies to slow cooker. Add seasoning to slow cooker and stir. Occasionally stir soup. Ready when the peas no longer hold their structure. Pull bone from soup and make sure meat from bone is in bite sized pieces.
