Scandinavian Split-Pea Soup

That's Hernekeitto in Finnish; Ärtsoppa in Swedish; Gule Ærter in Danish; Ertesuppe in Norwegian; and "Wholesome & Delicious" in English. You'll love this classic Scandinavian split-pea soup, usually made with dried yellow split peas on Thursdays across Finland and Sweden (just imagine! every week!) and is also the traditional supper on Shrove Tuesday, the day before Ash Wednesday in the Christian calendar (and what what fun-lovin' folk call "Fat Tuesday" or "Mardi Gras"). Scandinavian Split-Pea Soup is a hearty, healthy soup so in my kitchen, it's a nourishing cold-weather staple. Whole Food, Simply Prepared, "Plain" But Perfect. Home-Style & Comforting. Hearty & Filling. Simmer on the Stove or in the Oven or in a Slow Cooker. Budget Friendly. Great for Meal Prep. How to Feed a Crowd. Potluck & Party Friendly. Low Fat. Weight Watchers Friendly. Delicious with Ham, Delicious as Vegan Done Real . Natural
