Creamy Split Pea and Garbanzo Soup Preparation

Rinse pease, and both beans; place in kettle. Add chicken bouillon, ham bone (2 ham hocks can be used instead of bone), onion, salt and pepper. Bring to boiling. Reduce heat: cover and simmer 90 minutes, stirring often.

Remove ham bone or hocks; remove and chop meat; discard bones. Return meat to soup; add carrot and celery. Simmer 30 minutes. Add light cream (fun fact: I was out of milk/cream so I used 3 tablespoons of powdered coffee creamer... it worked perfectly!!)

    Best split pea soup ever! The texture from the chick peas and lentils is what sets it apart.
