Directions
Leftover Holiday Ham & Split Pea Soup, I make this every time I make a holiday ham to use up the leftovers It smells so wonderful as it cooks and pleases even the so-called pea haters in my family Simple to prepare too just chop all your veggies and ham up and toss everything into the pot and cook No need to soak the peas overnight just a rinse and drain before cooking , This is so much better than pea soup from the can such as Campbells or Progresso Easy to make too I halved the recipe and still ended up with a ton of soup Changes I made were to skip the Marjoram (didn’t have any) and used one 14 1/2 oz can of low sodium chicken broth along with 2 bouillon cubes and 2 1/2 cups of water I prefer a lot of carrot thus used two and less potato so only used 2/3rds of a medium spud (remember I halved the original recipe) I was a little fearful of using poultry seasoning and sage but took the plunge Added pepper as per the recipe but no salt Brought to boil then simmered an hour and a half Wow! Delicious Well worth the effort Thank you for this great recipe , Very hearty and satisfying Didn’t have poultry seasoning, so used Old Bay No salt
