  • 4 cups water
  • 1 small onion (chopped)
  • 3/4 cup carrot (chopped)

  • 1 tsp each: ground cumin, garlic powder, and salt
  • 1/2-1 tsp liquid smoke (optional)
  • pinch of ground black pepper
Instructions

1. Pick through peas, discarding any foreign matter. Rinse peas.
2. In large pot, combine all ingredients. Bring to boil, reduce heat, cover, and simmer 1 hour, or until peas are tender. Stir occasionally.
