YELLOW SPLIT PEA AND BARLEY SOUP



Yellow Split Pea and Barley Soup image

Meatless, non-dairy, delicious comfort food. Anyone entering the house and inhaling the aroma while you are preparing this soup will be drooling. This recipe was my mother's which I modified to make it vegetarian. My mother used to use chicken stock. If you promise not to tell her, I think it is a lot better than her's was. I made it for her and she swears it is her recipe. I never let on that it isn't. Everyone who tastes this soup loves it.

Number Of Ingredients 6

One 16-ounce package green or yellow split peas
1/2 cup pearl barley
1 large onion, finely chopped
3 medium carrots, thinly sliced
2 teaspoons salt-free herb-and-spice seasoning mix

  • Green split peas are easily digestible and high in protein. So are yellow peas, which are somewhat milder in flavor, though they can be used interchangeably. These peas are best known for their role in thick hearty soups.
  • Try coming up with your own simple split pea soup combinations. These little legumes have a special affinity for tomatoes, garlic, curry, spices, and fresh dill.
  • They're a delectable addition to winter stews, especially when combined with potatoes and eggplant.

CANADIAN YELLOW SPLIT PEA SOUP WITH HAM



Canadian Yellow Split Pea Soup with Ham image

Creamy yellow pea soup studded with bits of ham, carrots, celery, and thyme. There is nothing like this one on a cold day! I am a Canadian now living in the US. and cannot get Habitant® soup anymore, so I came up with this version. I think it is as good as the real thing, if not better, because it is homemade.
