Split Pea Soup
Serves 4 (amounts for 1 serving are in parentheses)
12 oz. (3 oz.) of green split peas, rinsed and drained
2T (2 tsp) butter
1C (1/4c) onion, finely chopped
Lg pinch salt (sm pinch salt)
1 tsp (1/4 tsp) garlic, minced
1T (½ tsp) curry powder
5C (1-1/4 c) chicken stock
Melt butter, soften onion without browning, add salt and garlic and saute briefly.
Add curry, stock and peas and bring to boil. Reduce heat to simmer, cover and cook
for 45 minutes or til breaking apart. Add pepper to taste and puree peas as much as desired.
NOTE: The butter and curry amounts for 1 serving are less than 1/4 of the full recipe. I
found the full amount of butter unnecessary and the full amount of curry a little spicy.
About Me
- Mary Lynne
- West Virginia
- When I started my retirement travels in 2009, I wanted a way to share it with family and friends as it was happening. Hence, "My Travel Journal". However I realized I wouldn't always be on a trip and wondered what to do with the blog in between times. My daughter pointed out, wisely, that travels can also include trips to the kitchen to try a new recipe, trips to visit family, trips to my neighborhood Starbucks, or a fun day trip with a friend. You're welcome to join me on any of these journeys! I've set up individual pages for each of my major trips (see tabs above).
Also, I have an Etsy shop where my current needlework resides. The last pieces I posted here were in 2013! So if you'd like to see what I have accomplished recently, go to (and I apologize for having to copy and paste):

I recently added an "Italian Word a Day" thingie which shows up at the bottom of every page. You see the word and can click to hear it pronounced. I've been enjoying it and I think my accent is improving as time goes by.
