Is there anything more comforting and satisfying than a hot bowl of Chunky Split Pea Soup on a cold winter day? <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Add the convenience and efficiency of a pressure cooker, and you've got a winning combination for a delicious meal in no time. Imagine enjoying a hearty and wholesome soup in about 30 minutes. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

So grab your pressure cooker, let's get cooking!<\/p>\n\n\n

Split Pea Soup is easy to make and easy on your food budget too. I added plenty of extra vegetables to the recipe for extra nutrition and to stretch out a few more servings.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

If you have leftover ham, or even a ham bone you can use that. Or go vegan<\/strong> and use oil and vegetable broth. It would be delicious both ways.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

While you could serve it as a complete meal on it's own, I baked up my Grandma Ruth's cornbread recipe<\/a> into muffins. My husband does not believe soup can be a meal on its own. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Smooth or Chunky Split Pea Soup<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Do you like your pea soup smooth or chunky? <\/p>\n\n\n\n

I like both, but this time I had a hankering for chunky. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

If you prefer yours smoother, do not add the ham until just before serving. After releasing the pressure use an immersion blender, or pour the soup in a food processor or blender and puree to desired consistency. Add the ham and serve.<\/p>\n\n\n
