Old-Fashioned Split Pea Soup

May 24th, 2010. I woke up at 7-ish am and what was my surprise when I looked thru the window and saw that IT WAS ACTUALLY SNOWING! Temperatures had dropped from mid 60s to low 30s.

This phenomenon could only happen in Salt Lake City, I guess.

Since there is nothing I can do to change what goes on outside my window, at least I know I have full control of what happens on the inside of my apartment.

More precisely, in the kitchen area.

And split pea soup on a cold spring day it is.

This was the first time I tried out split pea soup with corn and loved the crunchiness it added to the soup.

Enjoy!

Old-Fashioned Split Pea Soup

1 package dry split peas

1 package ham in cubes

1 small onion, diced

1 can corn

2 bouillons feijoada or casseroles

Salt and pepper to taste

Add ingredients in this order to your slow cooker. Let it cook for 3 (high) to 4 1/2 hours (slow).

Delectable!
