1 cup Split Peas
3 cups Vegetable Broth

Here is how you make Split Pea Soup with Hard Boiled Egg:

1. Heat the olive oil over medium/low heat in a large saucepot. Add the onions and cook on low for about 20 minutes, or until the onions have started to turn a golden brown color?just be careful not to burn them! Your goal is to caramelize the onions for maximum flavor. Be patient; it can take a while. 2. Once the onions have turned golden, add the split peas, carrots, broth, and spices, and bring to a boil. Cover, reduce heat to low, and simmer for about 35 minutes, until the peas and carrots are tender. 3. Carefully pour soup into a food processor or blender and whirl on high for a few seconds so everything is smooth and pureed. Pour soup back into the saucepot, season with more salt if needed, and ladle into 4 bowls, topping each bowl with a handful of chopped egg.Serving Size: 4 ServingsNumber of Servings: 4Recipe submitted by SparkPeople user JENNILACEY.
