How to Make Crock Pot Split Pea Ham Soup Kit

In a large (gallon-size) freezer bag, combine: 1 (2-3 lb) ham bone, 1 cup dried split peas, 1 medium onion (chopped), 2 carrots (chopped), 2 celery stalks (chopped).
In a smaller (snack-size) freezer bag, combine: 2 bay leaves, 2 beef bouillon cubes, 1 teaspoon garlic powder, 1/2 teaspoon black pepper.
Squeeze out as much air as possible from both bags and seal tightly.
Place both bags in a larger (2-gallon) freezer bag. Write 'Split Pea Ham Soup' and the date on the bag.
On cooking day: Place the contents of both smaller bags into your slow cooker.
Add 6 cups of water to the slow cooker.
Cook on high for 4-6 hours, or on low for 6-8 hours, until the split peas are tender.
Serve with croutons or crusty bread.
