Really sticks to your ribs, really tasty, high fiber. Easy to make. I got this off of All Recipes. I had the recipe scaled to 4 servings from 8.
1 1/2 teaspoons olive oil
1 c chopped onion
1 cup chopped carrot
1 cup finely chopped celery
3/4 teaspoon minced garlic
1/2 c yellow split peas
1/2 cup green split peas
4 cups fat-free vegetable broth (I used fat-free and low sodium)
3/4 teaspoon salt-free seasoning blend (I made my own)
1/2 teaspoon salt (I omitted)
1) In large pot or Dutch oven over medium heat - heat olive oil. Cook onion, carrot, celery and garlic until the onion is translucent.
2) Stir in yellow and green split peas, broth, seasoning and salt.
3)Cover, bring to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer 2 1/2 hours, stirring frequently.
4) Puree with a blender or food processor
5) Return to pot, heat through and serve.
