CROCKPOT SPLIT PEA, LENTIL, AND BARLEY SOUP AKA WEIGHT WATCHERS

Crockpot Split Pea, Lentil, and Barley Soup Aka Weight Watchers image

I made split pea and barley soup and was left with only a little bit of each left. I made Lentil soup, and was left with only a little bit of the bag left. I really, really wanted split pea soup tonight, so I decided to put a little bit of each in and see how it goes. I also added some turkey pepperoni instead of ham (so feel free to use whatever smoky meat you want) because...I didn't have any ham! The outcome was something unexpectedly delicious, and I think I'll be making this quite a bit in the future! By the way, each portion of this is 6 very filling Weight Watchers points (recalculating for the new system) without the turkey pepperoni. With the turkey pepperoni, it's 7.

CROCK POT SPLIT PEA AND LENTIL SOUP

Crock Pot Split Pea and Lentil Soup image

For a truly vegetarian soup, substitute vegetable bouillon for the chicken soup base. This recipe almost overflowed my 4-quart crockpot, you might want to halve the ingredients. I cooked it on high for the entire 8 hours because it was so full, but if you halve it, cooking it on low for the same amount of time will work fine.

Categories Lentil

Time 8h10m

Yield 12 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 10

Ingredients

1 (16 ounce) package dried split peas
1 (16 ounce) package dried lentils
12 cups water
12 teaspoons chicken soup base
4 carrots, chopped
1 large onion, chopped
2 celery ribs, chopped
2 garlic cloves, chopped
fresh ground black pepper, to taste
2 tablespoons italian seasoning

Steps:

Dump it all in the crock pot.
Cook on high for 8 hours or until beans are soft.
If you like it creamy, puree some or all of it with an immersion (hand held stick) blender.
If you don't have Italian seasoning, any combination of oregano, basil, sage, rosemary, thyme and marjoram will work.
Serve with crispy French or Italian bread.

Tips:

For a thicker soup, add an extra 1/4 cup of barley.
To make the soup in a slow cooker, combine all of the ingredients in the slow cooker and cook on low for 8-10 hours or on high for 4-6 hours.
Serve the soup with a side of crusty bread or crackers.
For a vegetarian version of the soup, omit the ham and use vegetable broth instead of chicken broth.
For a vegan version of the soup, omit the ham and use vegetable broth instead of chicken broth. Also, use olive oil instead of butter.
Add a bay leaf or two to the soup for extra flavor.
Garnish the soup with fresh parsley or chives before serving.
