Split Pea Soup is a classic American soup made from dried split peas. It's good for you, packed full of nutrients, and it still tastes like total comfort food. __________ CLICK FOR RECIPE ___________PRINTABLE RECIPE: https://thestayathomechef.com/split-pea-soup/ Ham is an optional part of split pea soup, but can be added in various forms. This recipe utilizes ham hocks. If you can't find ham hocks or don't like ham hocks, you can substitute diced ham instead. Simply add in the diced ham after pureeing your soup. Return the soup to a simmer to allow the ham to heat through. The ham can also be omitted entirely for a vegetarian option. FREEZER INSTRUCTIONS: This soup can easily be frozen. Cool the soup completely and then ladle into plastic freezer bags, or freezer safe containers for storage. I personally like to put mine in gallon sized ziploc bags. I try to guess the amount of servings I will need for the size of my family and divide it into appropriate portions. Label the bag with the serving size and date, then lay out flat to freeze. To reheat, simply thaw and bring to a simmer in a saucepan. Placing a lid on the pot of frozen soup will help it thaw and heat through faster.
