As I mentioned in the first post, I like cooking, and I'll probably post some recipes on here from time to time. This is one I made the other day. It's incredibly easy and requires almost no prep time, or cooking skills. It's also cheap, which is nice, and tastes like you spent all day in the kitchen, which is even better.
So here's what you'll need:
2 cups green split-peas
2 carrots
1 small onion
1 tbsp salt
1 tbsp black pepper
2 bay leaves (optional)
1 tbsp cilantro (optional)
1 tsp garlic powder (or 1 clove garlic minced)
Bacon (optional, however much you like)
Water
As I said, this is recipe is super easy, so here's the "hard" part.
Peel and dice the carrots and onion. Cook the bacon till it's just done and dice.
That's it. Now just throw everything in the pot, add enough water to cover everything in about 2 inches of water, and give it a stir. Turn on low for 6 hours.
There ya go, mom's impressed (bonus points if you did it while watching the baby) and happy she doesn't have to cook, and you barely did anything. Not a bad day.
