Simple Italian soups are so welcome this time of year, and none are more comforting that Split Pea and Potato soup! A nice warm bowl of soup, a crusty chunk of bread and a fireplace and I’m in heaven. The addition of potatoes to the pea soup just make it that much more hearty.
I used to make this soup with beef broth. However, I recently had some good homemade chicken broth, so I used it to make this simple Italian soup and I liked it better than ever. I also used Yukon Gold potatoes and they added a nice dimension to the soup.
