Carbohydrates: 21 grams
Fiber: 5 grams

2 tablespoons olive oil, divided
1 1/2 cups diced smoked ham
1 small onion, chopped
1 cup green split peas
1 can (14 1/2 ounces) chicken broth mixed with 1 can water
1/2 teaspoon dried sage leaves
Salt
Freshly ground black pepper
1. Heat 1 tablespoon oil in a large saucepot over medium
heat. Cook ham 5 minutes, or until lightly browned.
Remove with a slotted spoon and set aside.
2. Add remaining tablespoon of oil to pot. Cook onion 5
minutes, until softened. Add peas, broth mixture and
sage. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat to low and cook 35
minutes, or until peas are tender.
3. Puree half the soup in a blender, and return to pot along
with reserved ham. Cook over medium heat 10 minutes
for flavors to blend. Add salt and pepper to taste.
This shortcut recipe is as flavorful as pea soup simmered for
hours with ham hocks. Split peas are an exellent source of fiber,
phosphorous and potassium. Atkins - Ham and Split Pea Soup
