Hungarian Split Pea Soup
I'm not sure I would ever have come up with this on my own, But after my neighbor Dan and his wonderful wife Danielle (THANK YOU) served me this great soup, So I did some I did some interwebs scrounging, and found this, which tastes VERY close to Danielle's version. This works for me, and I hope you like it also.

- Add ham or pork butt, along with vegetables and spices and optional barley.
- Bring water to a boil, turn down heat and slowly cook until all veggies and peas are soft.

- Cooking will take about an hour and a half.
- If the soup is not as thick as you like it, cook it a little longer. The soup should be quite thick.
- Serve in a large bowl with a slice of ham or pork butt in each serving.
- Add some crusty bread and a brisk light salad for a satisfying meal.
