Smoky Split Pea and Sweet Potato Soup by Whitney Lauritsen

capture_04112014_125414Whitney’s soup is filled with healthy ingredients and is very easy and economical to make.  This recipe can be made in a large pot or even a slow cooker for those who want to set it and forget it.  It’s healthy ingredients include vegetable broth, onions, carrots, celery, red bell pepper, garlic, dried oregano, smoked paprika, yellow split peas, sweat potatoes, bay leaf, green onions, frozen peas.  Whitney uses vegetable broth instead of oil to saute the vegetables.  As she suggests, you could add or substitute vegetables as you wish.  And, this is another recipe that can be made ahead for use later.  Enjoy.

The recipe for this soup is here.

Whitney and 7 other vegan chefs have organized a youtube collaboration.  Each of them has posted a video recipe for one of their favorite soups, and they all have links to each others recipes.  I think this is a great idea.
