I don’t know if I’m in the minority here or not, but I love split pea soup. And while the picture doesn’t do it justice, this Split Pea with Apple Soup from “The Vegan Slow Cooker” is quickly becoming one of my favorite versions. For one, it’s made in a crockpot, and two, it packs a ton of flavor for only having a few simple and healthy ingredients. The apples add just a touch of sweetness and work so well with the split peas. A drizzle of balsamic vinegar on top adds another level of flavor to the soup.
What you see in the picture was my lunch today. I combined the soup with a grilled cheese (Daiya) and apple sandwich. The perfect meal for a rainy, fall day.
This is my ideal lunch, especially on a fall day, like you said! I’ll have to give this recipe a go.
It’s a great alternative to the old stand-by of tomato soup and grilled cheese. I hope you enjoy it!
Okay, that’s about the millionth recipe from that book that I want to eat off the screen. Looks like I’m going to have to get it. Thanks for sharing!
It’s a great book to have on hand, especially with the cooler temperatures creeping up. Lots of good soups and stews.
I have that book and have not made anything yet, but I have split peas and apples. I think this might be I. The works this week.
I hope you enjoy it!
