If there is a meal that I could eat rain or shine it would have to be soup. I love how soup can check all the boxes. It is comforting, nourishing, warm and cozy and has all the healthy elements of a well rounded meal wrapped up in a humble bowl. Soup is a superfood in my opinion, cause it’s got all the bases covered. Soup with all its nutritional benefits has one more thing that I have yet to mention. It is EASY to come together and when you read this recipe, you will realize exactly what I mean. It just doesn’t get easier than this folks.

I am super pleased to announce that I have partnered up with Crockpot and will be bringing you a new recipe using Crockpot’s wonderful slow cookers over the next 6 months. I will show you just how convenient these machines are without compromising taste! I don’t know about you, but I grew up with a Crockpot. My Mom used Crockpot (she still does) so the fact that I get to create my own recipes using them is really awesome, nostalgic and I really really cool

Equipment

  • Slow Cooker

Ingredients

  • 4 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 shallot finely chopped
  • 1 clove garlic minced
  • 1 medium carrot small dice
  • 1¼ cups fennel diced
  • 1 cup split peas rinsed
  • ½ tsp chili flakes
  • 1 tsp cumin seeds
  • 1 tsp fennel seeds
  • 1 tsp salt
  • cracked pepper
  • 4 cups vegetable broth

Instructions

  • Turn on the slow cooker to high and pour in olive oil. Add shallot, garlic, carrot and fennel. Stir to coat.
  • Use a mortar and pestle or a small spice grinder to crack the fennel and cumin seeds. Not looking for a powder, just enough to break the hull of the seeds. Add to the slow cooker.
  • Rinse split peas and add to slow cooker along with the veggie broth.
  • Season with chili flakes, salt and pepper. Bring soup to a bubble, then reduce heat to low and cook for 4-5 hours until vegetables are soft and tender.
  • Enjoy soup as is or pulse with an immersion blender before serving. Garnish the soup with sprouts, chili sauce or your favourite hot sauce.
