CREAMY VEGAN SPLIT PEA SOUP
To me, this soup is ultimate cold-weather comfort food. The tahini and Bragg's add amazing depth of flavor. It makes a big batch and freezes wonderfully. Be sure to serve with a generous stack of wholewheat bread, and a green salad if you like.

Steps:
- In a large pot, combine 6 cups of the water and split peas and bring to a boil.
- Reduce heat and simmer, covered, for 1 hour. Stir occasionally so they don't stick on the bottom.
- Add the vegetables and simmer another 30-45 minutes, until the peas are very soft (depends on the age of the peas).
- Meanwhile, whisk together the remaining 1 cup of water with the tahini and the remaining engredients. If your tahini is quite thick, do this in the food processor or blender, much easier. Stir the tahini mixture into the soup and serve.

CREAMY SPLIT PEA SOUP
This is a wonderful soup for a cold winter's night. My kids love it and ask for it all the time! Its great with fresh out-of-the-oven wheat bread. I often serve it with a dollop of cottage cheese (cools it down for the kids and adds protien). Enjoy!
