Aaron's a big fan of infusing flavors in a slow cooker and I really like the concept of "set it and forget it." This is a recipe you could set in the morning and come home to a ready dinner. Just add some extra water if you plan to leave it all day.
1 lb dried split peas
2 can chicken broth
1 Vadalia onion, diced
2 cups ham, diced
1/4 cup carrots, diced
1 tbsp butter
7-8 cups water
Salt & Pepper to taste
Add split peas, carrots, chicken broth and water to crock pot. Saute onions and ham in butter and add to pot. Cook on low 4-8hrs, add water and stir periodically as needed.
Serves: 6-8
