Third Generation Split Pea Soup (Crock Pot) image

I remember waking up in the morning to the smell of this delicious soup 40 years ago. Mom would put all of the ingredients in the slow cooker the night before and it was a marvelous thing to wake up to on a snowy, northern morning. Put it on in the morning before you go to work and the incredible aroma will meet you at the door...

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 lb dry split peas, soaked in water overnight and drained

1/2 tsp pepper
1/2 c chopped celery leaves
1 medium onion, diced

Steps:
