These days, everyone is looking for ways to stretch the dollar. It's not as difficult as you may think. Make your own homemade soup to last a few days for a fraction of the cost of commercially-prepared soups. Here's a well-tested recipe for split pea soup..It may not smell that good when being cooked, but the taste is well worth it!
Split Pea Soup
6 cups water
2 cups split peas
1/4 cup broccoli, diced
1/4 cup carrots, peeled and sliced
1/4 cup onions, diced
1 teaspoon Italian Seasoning spices (oregano, rosemary, thyme and parsley)
2 Bay leaves, if desired
Place the water into a crockpot. Add the remaining ingredients. Stir thoroughly. Set the temperature to high. Cook for 5-6 hours.
Adding the vegetables from the beginning will allow them to "melt" into the peas, making a wonderful puree. If you want to bite into veggies, add the veggies during the last two hours of cooking.
Serve with bread, crackers and a salad for a complete meal.
Store leftovers in an airtight container in your fridge.
