Ingredients

⅔ cup Split Peas Dried
1½ cups Vegetable Broth
2 cups Tomatoes Diced
1 cup Corn
1 Tablespoon Parsley Dried
1 Tablespoon Basil Dried
1 Tablespoon Oregano Dried
1 Tablespoon Chives Dried

Instructions

Combine the split peas and broth in a medium saucepan over high heat. Bring to a boil and stir. Then reduce heat, cover, and simmer until the split peas are tender, but not mushy and most of the liquid is absorbed, about 20 minutes.
Combine the cooked split peas in a large bowl with the tomatoes, corn, parsley, basil, oregano, and chives. Toss well to combine.
In a jar with a tight-fitting lid, combine the lemon juice, olive oil, Dijon mustard, garlic powder, syrup, salt, and pepper. Close and shake well to combine.
Pour dressing over the salad and toss to coat. Serve immediately.
