Ingredients

Servings

2 Tbsp extra virgin olive oil
1 onion (large, chopped)
5 ½ cups vegetable stock (chicken stock works if you don't care if it's vegetarian or vegan)
1 cup dried split peas (rinsed)
2 potatoes (medium sized, peeled and diced)
1 tsp kosher salt
¼ tsp black pepper (more or less, to taste)
2 oz milk (cream or half and half, optional-more or less as desired)

Instructions

In a large pot, saute the onion over medium high heat in the extra virgin olive oil until it becomes transparent and starts to become soft. Add the stock.
Then add the peas and potatoes, and stir well.
Bring to a boil, add salt; then reduce heat and simmer over low heat for 35 to 40 minutes or until peas are soft, stirring occasionally.
Remove from heat and blend until smooth, with immersion blender or a counter-top blender. Taste for salt and pepper; add as needed.
Add a splash of milk, cream, or half and half, if desired. (I frequently use half and half.) Serve split pea soup hot with extra pepper and crusty bread, or croutons.

Notes

Nutrition info includes the splash of milk.
