Yellow Split Pea Soup With Chard and Dill

Instructions

• 1. Heat the oil in a medium size soup pot over high heat. Add the onion, carrots, celery, chard stems and a pinch of salt. Reduce the heat to medium and sauté until the vegetables start to get tender, about 5 minutes. Add the garlic and sauté 1 minute longer.
• 2. Sort and wash the peas. Add to the pot along with the broth, dill and pepper. Bring the soup to a boil; reduce the heat to low and simmer, partially covered for 30 minutes, stirring occasionally. You may need to add water if the soup gets too thick.
• 3. Stir in the chard leaves and simmer for an additional 20 minutes, or until peas are tender.
• 4. Taste and adjust seasonings to keep your palate happy.
