On a cold day, nothing beats a warm meal. Give this slow cooked pea and ham soup a try this winter season!

With plenty of protein and veggies inside it, this pea and ham soup is bound to be one the kids enjoy, as well as being super nutritious!

Got leftovers? Chuck it in a container and refrigerate for later! (hint: heat it up and put it in a thermos, makes an excellent on-the-go meal or lunchbox filler!)

Serve this with your choice of breads, rice, or whatever else you feel might spice up the meal!

Looking for a good base for the soup? Give this chicken stock a try!

  • So easy to do, but I’ve never used a slow cooker for it before. Is 8 hours enough?
    Thanks for sharing.

  • Now we’re into Autumn the days are starting to get a little cooler. Time to get my slow cooker out and start with the soup. I’m looking forward to this one.

  • Pea and ham soup is one of my faves next to chicken and corn.
    Have never done a soup in a slow cooker though! I can’t wait for winter as it’s perfect soup weather.

  • This sounds delicious and very simple to make in the slow cooker. I think I’ll have to cook my pea & ham soup this way in future. Thank you
