Each time she has made it, it came out very bland. She has used, I believe, JOY of COOKING, BETTY CROCKER, and maybe other books- and probably recipes from the backs of split pea containers. Even with adding extras to the crock pot, it lacks the tastebud punch. I think that even Progresso makes a better soup, but I won't tell her that. So I am asking if there is anyone with any suggestions. Thanx in advance. LWS lws!hou2d *
