Total Time: 8 hrs 10 mins Preparation Time: 10 mins Cook Time: 8 hrs

Ingredients

• Servings: 10
• 1 ham bone or 2 -3 lamb neck bones
• 2 (32 ounce) containers chicken broth or 2 (32 ounce) containers stock
• 2 (16 ounce) bags dried split peas
• 4 carrots
• 2 onions
• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 2 tablespoons garlic powder
• 2 cups water
• salt and pepper

Recipe

• 1 dice onions and saute in the olive oil until soft then add to crock pot.
• 2 peel and slice the carrots and add to crock pot
• 3 add bone(s), stock, and garlic powder to crock pot.
• 4 add water. you may add water to achieve volume or final density you desire (i usually maximize the space in my crock pot, and this results in a less dense soup that doesn't turn into pudding in the fridge).
• 5 salt and pepper to taste.
• 6 you may opt to make a stock from the lamb bone(s) in your crock pot overnight the night before. this makes it easier to remove the bones and cartilage, then just add everything else.
