Here is how you make Slow Cooker Ham and Pea Soup:

Spray 3 qt. crockpot with cooking spray. I used 3/4 of a 1 lb. bag of dried peas (sorted and rinsed). Put broth in first then the rest of the ingredients. After 8-10 hours taste to make sure its spiced enough, you may have to add a little more thyme as it will disolves after that amount of cooking time. If you like your soup thicker, mash some of the soup in the slow cooker and stir. The mashed peas will help thicken the soup.Number of Servings: 6Recipe submitted by SparkPeople user KRIS10LEE.
