Green Split Pea and Ham Soup

Green Split Pea and Ham Soup

Everyday

Green split pea and ham soup is a traditional protein-rich dish combining dried, hulled green split peas with savory ham in a thick, blended base. The peas break down during slow cooking to create a naturally creamy texture without dairy, while ham adds depth of flavor and animal protein. This hearty soup delivers substantial dietary fiber from legumes and is often enhanced with aromatic vegetables like onions and carrots, though commercial versions may contain high sodium levels that require dietary consideration.
