Moosewood Golden Split Pea and Sweet Potato Soup image

I wanted to save this before I tried it. It is a bit different from the other Moosewood Golden Split Pea Sweet Potato Soup already posted on Zaar. This came from a January 1992 Bon Appetit article on the Moosewood Restaurant.

The soup was a little too thick for my liking. I added some extra water to thin it out.

This soup is not as sweet as I expected. I added a little bit of honey to sweeten it up.

This soup is a great way to use up leftover split peas. I also like to add some leftover turkey or chicken to the soup.

I made this soup last night and it was delicious! I had never cooked with split peas before, but they were so easy to work with. The soup was also really easy to make, and it came together in about an hour. I will definitely be making this again!

This soup is AMAZING! I've made it twice now and it's been a hit both times. The flavors are so rich and comforting, and the sweet potatoes add a nice sweetness that balances out the savoriness of the split peas. I highly recommend this recipe!
