EAST AFRICAN PEA SOUP
This is a recipe I saw originally in the Sundays at Moosewood cookbook. I use some of the habanero peppers I grow to add heat to this soup, but the original recipe called for about 1/8 teaspoon cayenne. Jalapenos or other hot chiles would also be good substitutes for the habs, although they are by far my favorite hot pepper.

SPLIT PEA SOUP
A definite what-to-do with those spiral ham leftovers. We have a large family, so I always double the recipe and chop up everything "un-spiraled" and left on the ham. If making the recipe below, I would guess maybe three heaping cups of ham -- you could use ham steak. Can also use broth instead of bouillon.
