Crockpot Split Pea Soup

This healthy, crockpot, split pea soup is full of creamy pea flavor with carrots, celery and ham added for even more flavor.  If you have 5 minutes and a crockpot, then you can have homemade split pea soup!  No stirring even required…just dump the ingredients into the crockpot, set it to cook and go on with your day.  And then boom!  A hot and healthy dinner ready to be dished up for the family.

This split pea soup recipe is a family favorite and is a great recipe to use your leftover ham in, but you can always buy a ham steak and cut that into chunks for this recipe too.  My split pea soup recipe is healthy because it is full of vegetables and lean ham, with no dairy or fat added to it.

To make this soup even healthier, I added turmeric powder to it.  Totally optional, but turmeric powder has some awesome health benefits and gives the soup a nice earthy punch.  I used Rodelle Organic Ground Turmeric in my split pea soup.

To make this soup, just add the ingredients to your crockpot, one layer at a time.

Pour the chicken broth in last, cover and cook.  You pick whether you want to cook on high for a shorter amount of time, or on low, for those days when you throw this together in the morning and are at work all day. I cooked my soup on high for 4-1/2 hours and it was PERFECT.

XOXO,
