ingredients

  • 3 medium shallot(s) -- or 1 small onion, diced
  • 1 small carrot(s) -- diced
  • 3/4 medium parsnip(s) -- or turnip, diced
  • 1 tsp butter
  • 1 C dry split peas -- about 1 cup, yellow or green
  • 2 tsp rosemary -- chopped
  • 4 C fat-free chicken broth
  • 1/8 tsp table salt -- or to taste
  • 1/8 tsp black pepper -- or to taste
  • 1 medium garlic clove(s) -- halved
  • 4 slice French bread -- 1/2-inch-thick, toasted

directions

In a nonstick saucepan, stir together shallots, carrots, parsnip and butter. Cook over medium-low heat, stirring often, until vegetables begin to color.

Stir in split peas, rosemary and chicken broth. Bring to a simmer and cook until peas are tender, 45 minutes to 1 hour. Season to taste.

Rub one side of each bread slice with cut side of garlic. Serve 1 slice toast with each bowl of soup.

notes

Since split peas don`t need to be soaked in advance, they`re excellent for making a last-minute meal out of what`s left in your fridge or pantry.
