I'm one for trying recipes off the back of packets, let's face it, if it's on the back of a product it must have been tried and tested, so it's worthy of a try!
Here's Jack Rabbits, green split pea recipe; it's looking good!
1 lb green split peas
3 quarts water
1 small ham shank
1 large onion, finely chopped
2 chicken bouillon cubes
1/2 tsp garlic powder (I prefer fresh garlic, so I finely chopped 3 gloves)
1/2 tsp oregano
ground pepper
1 bay leaf
1 1/2 cup carrots, thinly sliced
1 cup celery, chopped (I omitted as I didn't have any)
In a deep pot, combine the peas, water, ham shank, onion, chicken bouillon and seasonings.
Simmer uncovered for 1 1/2 hours
Remove ham shank; trim the meat off the bone and return to the pot.
Stir in the carrots (and celery)
Simmer uncovered again for 2 1/2 hours
Finished result! Wow, it's tasty, this recipe is a keeper!
