Steps:
- Combine the peas, hocks, carrots, celery and onions in a large soup pot or Dutch oven. Tie the parsley, thyme and bay leaf together with kitchen string. Add the herb bundle, stock and 1 teaspoon salt. Bring to a boil over high heat. Lower the heat to a simmer; cover and cook until the peas are tender, 50 minutes to 1 hour.
- Remove the pot from the heat, and remove the hocks to a bowl to cool. Remove the meat from the hocks, discarding the bones, fat and skin. Cut the meat into cubes. Remove the herb bundle from the soup and discard.
- Puree the soup with an immersion blender or in batches in a blender to desired consistency. Heat the soup to a simmer with the meat and season with salt and pepper. Serve in heated bowls. Serve with the Simple Salad.
- Although the salad is prewashed, still give it a soak in a big bowl of cold water for about 5 minutes. Lift the salad out of the water, so any grit is left in the bowl. Put it in a salad spinner; don't pack it in or the greens will get bruised. Spin dry. If you don't have a spinner, lay on a clean towel and gently pat dry.
- Put the greens in a big bowl. Drizzle 3 tablespoons (a regular soup spoon is fine ¿ you don't need the measuring type) of olive oil over the greens. Drizzle with 1 tablespoon vinegar. Sprinkle with salt and pepper. Using tongs or 2 forks, toss just enough so that all the greens are lightly dressed. Transfer to 4 salad plates and serve immediately.

Creamy yellow pea soup studded with bits of ham, carrots, celery, and thyme. There is nothing like this one on a cold day! I am a Canadian now living in the US. and cannot get Habitant® soup anymore, so I came up with this version. I think it is as good as the real thing, if not better, because it is homemade.

SLOW COOKER SPLIT PEA AND HAM SOUP
Easy and delicious! Very thick and hearty! Freezes well! (I always make a double batch and freeze 2/3.) Update: If you overcook, the soup will get even thicker than usual! and turn a little bit of an olive drab color--it will still taste good though!

Steps:
- Layer ingredients in slow cooker in the order listed.
- Pour in water. Do not stir!
- Cover and cook on low 8 to 10 hours or until peas are very soft and ham falls off bone.
- Remove bones and bay leaf.
- Serve!
Tips:
- Use a good quality ham bone. The flavor of the soup will depend on the quality of the ham bone you use. Look for a ham bone that is meaty and has a good amount of marrow. You can use a ham bone from a cooked ham, or you can buy a ham bone at the grocery store.
- Soak the ham bone in water overnight. This will help to remove some of the salt from the ham bone and make the soup less salty. You can also omit this step if you are short on time.
- Use a variety of vegetables. The more vegetables you use, the more flavorful the soup will be. Some good vegetables to use in split pea soup include carrots, celery, onions, potatoes, and turnips.
- Season the soup to taste. Add salt, pepper, and other spices to taste. You can also add a bay leaf or two for extra flavor.
- Serve the soup with a side of bread or crackers. This will help to soak up the soup and make it a more satisfying meal.
