Recipe by: McDougall Plan Begin by placing peas, barley, and lima beans in
large soup pot with 8 cups of water, onion, bay leaves, and celery seed.
Cook over low heat, covered, about 1 One half hours. Then add the remaining
vegetables and seasonings and cook about 45 minutes longer. Add more water
if necessary.

split peas to 2 cups. Freezes well. Makes a good sandwich spread; also good
on baked potatoes.
