Starbucks 'Trenta': How The New Size Compares To Your Stomach
Famous Death Row Last Meals
A couple of weeks ago, I found myself at Aldi's. For those of you not in the know, it's a discount grocery store that often carries an eclectic assortment of stuff. I like to stop in occasionally, as you never know when you might hit upon cheap maple syrup or European dark chocolate. During my last visit, I picked up a two-pound bag of split peas for next to nothing, entranced by the idea of big pots of soup to keep me warm during these cold winter days.
The only problem with that vision is that I've never made soup with split peas before. I could go searching my cookbooks and the internet for some recipes, but I thought that instead, I'd ask all you Slashfood readers. I know that there have to be a few of you out there with a favorite, makes your family cheer, totally delicious split pea soup recipe. So please dish! Tell me how to turn these dried peas into something wonderful!
