Slow Cooker Split Pea Soup

Split pea soup is my ALL TIME favorite soup and there’s no better way to make it than in the slow cooker! It’s creamy, healthy, and it doesn’t get any easier than throwing everything in a slow cooker!

You can tell just from reading this ingredient list that it’s going to be packed full of flavor!

Here’s what you need to make the slow cooker split pea soup.

• 16 ounces dry split peas
• 3 large carrots
• 1 medium yellow onion
• 3 ribs of celery
• 3 garlic cloves
• 8 ounces diced ham
• 1 teaspoon oregano
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 6 cups chicken broth

Now, I don’t always do this but sometimes I like to add some fun shaped noodles in the soup to really fill up my kids’ bellies! If you want to add the noodles, just boil them in a separate pot and add them in at the end.
