Split Pea Soup

Onions
Garlic
Split Peas
Sea salt
Carrots
Oil


Sautee the garlic .... I used about 8 cloves and mashed them a little bit and then sauteed them in a few tablespoons of canola oil). Add the onions, about 1 medium to large onion chopped. Sautee. Slice the carrots and add to the pot. Rinse and add about 2 cups of split peas, also to the pot. Add salt to taste, 1 - 2 teaspoons. And water. Bring to a boil and then reduce heat and simmer for a while.

I filled my pot up with water and then allowed it all to reduce down.

It was surprisely simple yet good. Next time, I'd add some herbs. And maybe some celery.
