To me, this spicy pea soup is total comfort food. I cook it low and slow all day, and it fills the house with a yummy aroma. It's so good with a nice, crispy baguette. —Chelsea Tichenor, Huntington Beach, California

Ingredients

2 smoked ham hocks
1 package (16 ounces) dried green split peas
4 medium carrots, cut into 1/2-inch slices
1 medium onion, chopped
1 jalapeno pepper, seeded and minced
3 garlic cloves, minced
8 cups water
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon pepper

Directions

In a 4- or 5-qt. slow cooker, combine all ingredients. Cook, covered, on low until meat is tender, 6-8 hours. Remove meat from bones when cool enough to handle; cut ham into small pieces and return to slow cooker.

Peppers (Hot)

Wear disposable gloves when cutting hot peppers; the oils can burn skin. Avoid touching your face.
