SPLIT PEA SOUP!

first cold day in Nashville and i couldn't be more excited about SPLIT PEA SOUP. here's my recipe:

sautee some basic aromatics -- onions, celery, carrots, bacon -- whatever.
add a bad of split peas and cover with water or broth (use broth if you have it)
cook till done.

food for days for less than a buck. yummy with tamari on top.
