Ingredients

1 cup dried split peas
4 cups vegetable broth
1 onion, chopped
2 carrots, diced
2 celery stalks, chopped
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 bay leaf
1 teaspoon dried thyme
1 teaspoon dried oregano
Salt and pepper to taste
2 tablespoons olive oil
Fresh parsley, for garnish

Instructions

Rinse the split peas thoroughly and drain them.
In a large pot, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add onions, carrots, and celery. Cook until vegetables are tender, about 5 minutes.
Add garlic, bay leaf, thyme, oregano, and salt and pepper. Cook for an additional 2 minutes.
Add split peas and vegetable broth to the pot. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to low and simmer for 1 hour, or until split peas are tender.
Remove the bay leaf from the pot. Use an immersion blender or a regular blender to puree the soup until smooth.
Season with additional salt and pepper to taste. Serve hot, garnished with fresh parsley.
