Ingredients

1 tablespoon vegetable or olive oil

1 medium yellow onion, diced

2 garlic cloves, minced

1 large carrot, diced

2 ribs celery, sliced

2 cups split peas, rinsed

6 cups vegetable broth

Salt and pepper, to taste

Instructions

  1. Heat the oil in a large pot with a lid over medium heat.
  2. Add the diced onion, minced garlic, carrot, and celery. Sauté for 5 to 7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the vegetables begin to soften and become fragrant.
  3. Stir in the split peas and vegetable broth. Cover the pot with the lid, reduce the heat to a simmer, and cook for 45 minutes.
  4. Remove the lid and continue cooking for an additional 15 minutes, allowing the soup to thicken.
  5. Season with salt and pepper to taste and serve warm.

Notes

Add a bay leaf or a pinch of smoked paprika for extra depth of flavor.

For a smoother texture, partially blend with an immersion blender.

Add diced potatoes, spinach, or kale for variation.

Store in the refrigerator for up to 5 days or freeze for up to 3 months.

Add extra broth or water when reheating if the soup becomes too thick.
