Peas, Green Split


(Peas, Green Split) Green split peas are commonly sold in 1-pound bags in most supermarkets. Organic green split peas can be found in most health food stores. We have found that green split peas are usually the least expensive dried bean in the markets. When cooked, they easily break down to make a thick creamy soup or chowder, and unlike other legumes, split peas require no pre-soaking, and will soften in about two hours. To the left is a cup of dry green split peas, which shows the actual size.
See the nutritional chart below for raw and cooked split peas.

The above recipe is in keeping with God's creation intent (Genesis 1:29-31): 'Then God said, "I give you every seed-bearing plant on the face of the whole earth and every tree that has fruit with seed in it. They will be yours for food. And to all the beasts of the earth and all the birds of the air and all the creatures that move on the ground-- everything that has the breath of life in it-- I give every green plant for food." And it was so. God saw all that he had made, and it was very good.' (NIV) Let no animal suffer or die that we may live!
