The mighty green split pea !

Dried green split peas might be small, but they're a mighty nutritional member of the legume family.  

Packed full of soluble fiber, these magic little peas help lower cholesterol (which in turn helps with the prevention of constipation, irritable bowel syndrome and diverticulosis), as well as helping to manage blood-sugar disorders as their high fiber content prevents blood sugar levels from rising rapidly after a meal.

And this is just the tip of the iceberg!

So my gift to you today is this lovely little recipe, whether you use it for a little snack, or perhaps a lunch time treat...
