Oooh, so happy to hear it! We definitely cracked some fresh black pepper over the top of our bowls. Didn’t think to add cayenne, though, I LOVE spicy spicy. Will try next time.

We made this the other night and it was a hit. Added some Cayenne and lots of black and white pepper to heat it up a bit! I think this is going to be on regular rotation like your Southwestern Slowcooker Chicken!

I haven’t tried rosemary, Erik, but that’s a great idea – I bet it’d be really good subbed for the oregano/marjoram in this recipe, actually! Thanks for the tip!

Hi Sarah!
I prefer yellow peas myself, but I won’t turn down green peas. I hardly ever buy ham, but I like to use a smoked ham hock. The smoke flavor really works with the peas, and I don’t even bother with stock. But using up leftover ham is definitely the way to go if you have it.
Have you ever tried using rosemary in your pea soup? I tried it once and it’s my go-to spice now.
