SPLIT PEA & KALE STEW

Ingredients

• 1/4 pcs Onion, chopped
• 1 clove Garlic, peeled and chopped
• 1 pcs Carrot, peeled, diced
• 1 stick Celery stalk, chopped
• 1 g Thyme, dried
• 130 g Yellow split peas, dried
• 630 ml Vegetable broth, bouillon or consomme, low sodium
• 30 g Fresh kale, roughly chopped

Method

1. In your slow cooker, add the onion, garlic, carrots, celery, thyme and dried split peas. Pour the broth over all ingredients and cook on low for 8 hours. Stir every few hours to prevent the split peas from sticking to the bottom.
2. In the last 30 minutes of cooking, add chopped kale. Once the kale is wilted, season to taste with salt and pepper.
3. Enjoy!
4. NOTE: If you do not have a slow cooker you can cook this on your stove top, it will need to simmer for 2 to 3 hours to make sure the split peas are well cooked and the flavours have absorbed.
