This split pea soup is what comfort food is all about! Made with a ham bone and meaty chunks of ham, it’s hearty, flavorful, and super easy to make at home!
Split pea soup is a must-make recipe after you’ve cooked a ham for Easter, Thanksgiving, or Christmas. Green split peas are simmered with veggies and a meaty ham bone until they’re softened, for a perfectly chunky, veggie-heavy soup with deep pork flavoring. This has always been one of my mom’s favorite soups, and honestly, who can resist it? I guarantee you’ll definitely be going back for seconds!

What are your other favorite soup recipes that I should make? Give me a few ideas! 🙂 And happy Easter everyone! xo – Lisa
Split pea is one of my top faves. Big dish in Finland. I have always made mine with my instant pot.
Wow that looks amazingly good! I usually just cook my split peas with chicken stock and add potatoes, salt & pepper. This will be my new split pea soup recipe.
Anderson Pea Soup restaurant is still very much open. The one I always eat at is in Santa Nella, Ca.
Can you please do corn chowder or chicken tortilla soup?
What are your recommendations for a vegetarian version? Any additional ingredients to substitute for the ham flavor?
Split pea soup is delicious on a cold day❣️????????I don’t use pork because God says not to eat it, but I put in baco-bits that are made from soy❣️God bless you❣️????????????????
I loved Anderson's when I was younger…..soup looks delicious.
Looks yummy, I love your simple and delicious recipes. Lentil soup is my favorite. will try this one for sure
I was just thinking about how hummy homemade split pea soup sounds.
I can't wait to make it this weekend!
I grew up in the Bay Area, CA, and we often visited grandparents in LA. Also visited Andersons where I fell in love with this soup! Thanks for this recipe, it brings back good memories! ❤
Hey Lisa, Can you please recommended some herbs/spices that would help with replacing the flavor of the ham hock, as I do not eat meat. Thanks.
I had just been thinking to myself how much I have missed some hearty winter soups, as I just haven't had the time to get into making any! And behold, your video pops up! I know it's not winter anymore (Thank God!) But a warm bowel of soup is good for the soul, & tummy, any day in my book! ???? Thanks for the recipe!!!
Yes, I remember stopping by the Anderson Pea Soup on my way up north. I loved their ???? ???? pea soup. Thank you for sharing this recipe ✌️❤️????????
There are still at least two Andersen's locations. One in Buellton and one in Santa Nella. I recently went to the Santa Nella location.
Ahhhhh the childhood memories of stopping to get Andersons split pea soup when we lived in California ???? this recipe is so much better! Thank you Lisa! Easter Blessings! ❤
Making tonight! Looks so good ????????????????????
Whenever I hear think about this soup, all I can think of is the Rescuers Disney movie. Not sure if it was the 1st or 2nd, but a human drops a pea on the floor, so the little critter picks it up and takes it to the kitchen and the chef says, "pea soup"! LOL! This soup looks so good, I must make it. I have tried a few of your recipes from your cookbook and the cilantro lime shrimp was delicious!
American vlogger imitates split pea and ham soup from a 20th century restaurant chain in California. In fact, this soup was developed by the French habitants who colonized what is now Quebec, around 1600. It’s a favourite staple in Canadian cuisine.
We pass Pea Soup Andersen's in Santa Nella on our way to Santa Cruz. Definitely a landmark!
This recipe looks super good!!
Thanks for this nice sharing ????????
This is one of my favourite soups! What is the white utensil called that you used to gather up the veggies in the beginning?
Looks really tasty! Do you have any suggestions to replace the ham bone for people who don't eat pork?
Looks very delicious ???? i would just use chicken instead of ham ( i don't eat pork) or maybe totally without meat ???? great Recipe ????
Yummy Yummy Yummy
Looks delicious! And btw, we ate at Anderson Split Pea in Santa Nella this past November!!
