I love split pea and ham soup, and this is one of my comfort foods. Cooked in a crock pot, this is an easy meal to enjoy on a cold winter night. I found this recipe on an awesome cooking blog, melskitchencafe.com.

Steps:
- In a medium bowl or liquid measure, combine the water, bouillon cubes and spices and whisk to combine (it's ok if the bouillon cubes don't completely dissolve).
- In a medium round slow cooker (about 4-quart), layer peas, barley, ham, carrots, onion and celery. Do not mix.
- Pour in the water/spices mixture and add the bay leaf to the slow cooker.
- DON'T STIR!
- Cover the slow cooker and cook on high for four hours or on low eight hours, until the peas reach the desired creamy, soft texture.
- Remove the bay leaf, stir well, and add salt and pepper to taste, if needed. Serve immediately.
- Note: Upon sitting and/or refrigerating, this soup thickens considerably. Simply add water or chicken broth to thin the soup to the desired consistency before re-serving.
