Split pea soup is some real comfort food. Instead of the typical ham, this version uses smoked turkey for its meaty component.

ready in:
  1-2 hrs

ingredients

8 cups water
1 pound split peas, rinsed and picked over
1 smoked turkey leg
1 carrot, peeled and chopped
1 stalk celery, chopped
1 onion, chopped
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 bay leaf
1/2 cup Original Malt-O-Meal® cereal, uncooked
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon ground black pepper

directions

Combine the water, split peas, and turkey leg in a large pan over medium-high heat. Bring to a boil. Skim off any foam that forms on the surface. Reduce the heat to a simmer and let cook for 20 minutes.

Add the carrot, celery, onion, garlic, and bay leaf. Cook for 30 minutes longer or until the split peas and vegetables are soft.

Add the cereal while stirring. Let cook for 5 more minutes until thick.

Remove the turkey leg from the soup. Cut off the meat and cut into bite-sized pieces. Discard the bones. Return the turkey meat to the soup. Remove the bay leaf.

Season the soup with the salt and pepper and serve hot.
