Why This Recipe Works

Filling & Flavorful: This split pea soup recipe is both filling and super flavorful! The split peas offer lots of protein and nutrients and cook up perfectly in the chicken broth. The smoked ham adds a ton of flavor but is not necessary to make this an absolutely delicious and hearty soup! Better Homemade: We all know that homemade is just better. This classic split pea soup is no exception! Using fresh, aromatic vegetables and and savory seasonings, this is a homemade soup that you won’t be able to get enough of!

Expert Tips

Add any ham that you have on hand! You can add unsmoked ham, with a little bit more added paprika. Or, you can add ham bone and whatever meat is left on it. If not that much meat is left on it, you can add a bit more paprika in that case as well, in order to get that smoky flavor! If you want a thicker soup, let it simmer for an additional 20-30 minutes until it is the desired consistency! For an even heartier soup, add some diced gold or red potatoes to the mix!
