Split Peas

I found this site about split pea nutritional facts: http://www.whfoods.com/genpage.php?tname=foodspice&dbid=56

I like it because it tells you all about what is in these green pea's. I've never been a huge pea fan but they are a power food and especially healthy for all of you that are looking for non fatty filled protein. The fiber helps you feel satisfied after eating (like those naughty carbs do) but you don't have to feel guilty about the "full" feeling from eating a hardy meal with split peas. But that's not all! It also helps balance your blood sugar and lower your cholesterol too.

I'm going to eat the rest of my split pea with tomato soup and rice lunch :)

.... and yes i just took that picture, I'm a nerd.
