GOLDEN YELLOW SPLIT PEA SOUP
You may have seen green split pea soup before, but I love the color the yellow split peas give my version. Turmeric also gives it a golden hue and lends an earthy flavor. For added creaminess, I like to dollop a little smoky sour cream on top.

Steps:
- Heat the oil in a Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Add the onion, garlic, carrots, celery and turmeric and cook until the vegetables are tender, about 5 minutes. Add the peas, vegetable broth, thyme and 1/2 teaspoon each salt and pepper.
- Bring to a boil; cover, reduce the heat to low and simmer until the peas are tender and the soup is thickened, 40 to 45 minutes. Stir in 1 to 2 cups water at the end of cooking if the soup is too thick.
- Meanwhile, stir together the sour cream, paprika and 1/4 teaspoon each salt and pepper. Spoon the soup into serving bowls and top with the sour cream. Garnish with thyme, if desired.
GOLDEN YELLOW SPLIT PEA SOUP (CROCKPOT / SLOW COOKER)
I modified this from a Food and Wine recipe--and I think it is a keeper! We like to have it with grilled ham and cheese (or just cheese for Lent). I especially like this as the seasoning is a little different and makes a nice change from our usual split pea and ham soup.

- Add more or less water, depending on how thick you want your soup to be. For a thicker soup, use less water. For a thinner soup, use more water.
- Season the soup to taste with salt and pepper. You can also add other seasonings, such as garlic powder, onion powder, or paprika.
- Serve the soup with a side of crusty bread or a salad.
