split pea and ham soup
I laugh every time I make or eat split pea soup, remembering the movie where there was an exorcism and the pea soup was what they used during one scene. Trust me, you won't need to be exorcised with this wonderful soup...but if you are like me, you may need exercise after filling up on it! :)
