Soupe Aux Pois (Pea Soup) image

This is from the Canadian Living Slow Cooker Recipe Cookbook. It states that this soup is still the test kitchen's favourite pea soup. This keeps well in the refrigerator, you might have to thin it a bit with water when reheating. If you do not have a ham bone you may use an 8 oz piece of salt pork, chopped into bite sized pieces.
