    Hi everyone.  So if you want a super easy meal for dinner on meatless Monday or any day, see what I made for dinner yesterday.  Yep made it in the slow ccoker.  I had healthy split pea soup, French bread and a glass of white wine.  Yes I know the last picture defeats the eating healthy but it was apples. I will post the recipe below the pictures. Just an FYI, I am really not a spilt pea soup person but this soup was really good.

Well the pictures didn't paste in the order I wanted.

So below is the recipe

Split Pea Soup
16 oz split peas (bought them in a bag at the grocery store)
4 medium carrots peeled and diced
2 stalks celery chopped
1 to 1 1/2 cup chopped yellow onion
2 garlic cloves smashed
1bay leaf
1tablespoon salt--I cut the salt in half
1/2 teaspoon pepper
6 cups hot water, can use vegetable stock instead of water, I used water

Place the ingredients in the slow cooker in the order listed above.
Do not stir
Cook on high 4-5 hrs or slow 8-9 hours.

That is it. So easy. It made enough so I had enough to freeze 3 small containers plus I had 2 servings for dinner of which I ate one and have one for dinner today.

You can also make a simple salad to add to this meal to have more food if you have folks over for dinner or have hearty appetites in your family.
