To make it completely vegan, simply use vegetable stock or water as your liquid base.I recommend using vegetable stock if you want to keep this vegan because it has the most flavor, but water works too if that's all you have.When it comes to easy and delicious winter meals, a piping hot bowl of soup is at the top of my list.

Need a meat-free and fat-free split pea soup recipe?Although many split pea soup recipes use ham for added flavor, this vegetarian and vegan split pea soup packs in the spices, including thyme, sage, and bay leaves for a lower fat and cholesterol version of classic split pea soup.As an added bonus, with all those herbs and spices, you'll find that you need very little salt to add the flavor.I've made this Vegan Yellow Split Pea & 'Ham' Soup a few times now and usually make it with pre-split yellow peas, however I ended up with a bag of whole yellow peas which I needed to use up.With whole peas you need to pre-soak them (I soak the whole bag over night) then rinse & simmer in enough water to cover them until the peas are tender.
