EXPERT TIPS

Expert Tips

Use sliced carrots purchased from the produce department or salad bar instead of slicing your own. The ham and celery can be cut ahead of time, packaged separately and refrigerated until you're ready to assemble the soup.

Crisp breadsticks or crackers complete this hearty soup. For a sweet ending, serve fresh fruit and a plate of holiday cookies.

For extra color and flavor, sprinkle each serving with crumbled crisply cooked bacon or chopped fresh parsley.

Made this recipe exactly as written except I didn't add red pepper sauce. I couldn't find yellow split pea and just used green split peas. This recipe was excellent. My entire family liked it and even my picky husband. Added Town House crackers to each bowl. My kids said I was an excellent cook with this recipe.

This meal is absolutely fantastic! The only adjustment I made was adding a splash of Worcestershire sauce and a couple of teaspoons of butter. I've made this 4 times and my family loves it!
