Notes: Easter isn't the same without Gramp's scalloped potatoes. Well.....the days after Easter aren't the same without Gramp's delicious split pea soup. Gramps always preferred it more on the thicker side. You can adjust the amount of water depending if you too like it thicker or thinner. I love a good bowl where my spoon can stand up on its own.
We always make enough to freeze. Without doubt...about 2 months later we crave it. So, a word to the wise, always make enough to either share or save for later. You will not regret it.
