I decided to start posting Sunday’s soups on Saturday to give you time to get groceries. Today I’m am sharing my son’s favorite soup. He looks forward to winter because he knows mom’s homemade split pea soup is in his future! (Don’t worry, he doesn’t read my blog, so he won’t know I’m embarrassing him right now.)
This recipe is inspired by Ina Garten’s, Parker’s split pea soup. I’ve made a few changes such as adding ham and have turned it into Spencer’s split pea soup.

Tips:
- Double the recipe and freeze some for next week when you get home late from work.
- This soup is definitely company worthy. To make the presentation a little extra special, serve it up in a sourdough bread bowl.
- Having dental work done soon? This is the perfect meal to feel satisfied without needing to chew.
- Leftover ham? You guessed it, make this soup for sure!
