Weight Watcher Freestyle Split Pea Soup Recipe

Weight Watcher Freestyle Split Pea Soup 

I made this recipe last week and it was delicious. Hearty and satisfying this Freestyle soup comes to 0 points per serving. I made this in a crockpot but you could probably simmer it on the stove for a few hours as well. 

Ingredients:

1 bag (1 pound) of split peas rinsed. 

1 medium onion diced

2-3 medium carrots peeled and chopped

2-3 medium celery stalks chopped

2-3 cloves of garlic minced

1 bay leaf

1/4 cup chopped parsley

4 cups of chicken or veg stock

3 cups of water

(optional) 2 tsp of liquid smoke 

Put the split peas in the bottom of the crockpot - put the rest of the veggies on top, season with salt and pepper. Pour the liquids in and add the liquid smoke. 

Set crockpot on low for 8-10 hours or high for about five hours.  

Optional: Add one cup of diced ham for the last half an hour (this adds a point per cup). 

Makes about 7-8 one cup servings. 

If it's too thick add a little extra water. 

Enjoy!
