Slow Cooker Yellow Split Pea Soup with Andouille Sausage

Spice up the traditional yellow split pea soup by slow-cooking it all day with andouille sausage, and you'll come home to a hearty and comforting soup.

Directions

Stir the broth, carrots, celery, onion, parsley, garlic, bay leaf, peas and sausage in a 4-quart slow cooker.

Cover and cook on HIGH for 4 to 5 hours* or until the vegetables are tender. Remove the bay leaf.

Place 1/3 of the broth mixture into a blender or food processor. Cover and blend until almost smooth. Pour the mixture into a 3-quart saucepan. Repeat the blending process twice more with the remaining broth mixture. Cook over medium heat until the mixture is hot and bubbling.
