Sometimes the easiest way to get kids to eat something is to rename it. What child wants to eat green mush, or worse, something with "peas" in the title?!?! But when you talk about Ogre Snot? Well then bottoms up! Since we all know ogre's don't use spoons be sure to serve with bread to sop up the soup.
(sorry, the seasonings are approximations, I eyeball it, and taste test)
4 carrots chopped
minced garlic
oregano 1 tsp?
sage 1 1/2 tsp?
nutmeg 1/2 tsp?
8 c chicken broth
1 lb dried peas
2 c diced ham
Chop carrots and celery and soften in dutch oven with garlic and olive oil. Add seasonings. Then add chicken broth and peas. Let it come up to a simmer, add ham and let simmer till peas are mushy. (around an hour or so)
