Pea Soup

This is another family recipe from as long as I can remember. One of my favorites!
********************************
Ingredients needed:
1 bag dried peas
1 ham bone(shank)
onion salt
pepper
Lawry’s season salt
10 cups water

1. Mix all ingredients in crockpot. Season to your tastes.
2. Cook on high for at least 6 hours. Make sure peas are soft.
3. Remove ham bone from soup, let cool off, then pick off meat and add back into soup.
4. Serve with any type of bread or cracker.
***************************************************
Variations:
My grama likes to add diced carrots and cooked shell noodles, I prefer it the way it is written.
Both my grama and my mother make this on the stove. I prefer the crockpot cause you can throw it in and forget about it, but if you have time to cook it on the stove and watch it, it will cook faster.

ENJOY!!
