Slow Cooker Golden Split Pea Soup
Adding raisins, leeks and cumin to this slow-cooked split pea soup gives it a deliciously different, Persian-inspired flavor. You can use lamb instead of beef for a more traditional dish, but we preferred it with beef because it added richness while still allowing the flavors to meld together.
Ingredients
5 cups Swanson® Chicken Broth
2 pounds beef for stew, cut into 1-inch pieces
3 leek (white parts only), cut in half lengthwise and sliced
1 large onion, chopped (about 1 cup)

5 cloves garlic, minced
3 bay leaf
1 teaspoon dried oregano leaves, crushed
