This is SO easy and SO good but, because of slicing the veggies, it may be tough to get together in the morning before work. I love to make this on the weekends in the winter.
1 16-oz package dried split peas, rinsed
2 cups diced ham
3 carrots, pealed and sliced
1 medium onion, chopped
2 stalks celery plus leaves, chopped (I leave this out)
3 –4 cloves of garlic
1 bay leaf
1 tablespoon seasoned salt (I use Mrs. Dash Garlic & Herb)
½ teaspoon fresh pepper
1-1/2 quarts hot water
I also added a bit of thyme and some cayenne pepper later in the day (just sprinkle and taste it until it seems right)
Layer ingredients in crockpot. Pour in water, so don’t stir. Cover and cook on high 4-5 hours or on low for 8-10 hours. Remove bay leaf. I cook this on low and don’t stir it for the first 6 hours or so. Then I stir and season to taste. Thinking of adding some cubed potatoes next time.
