About Split peas

Split peas are dried, peeled, and split seeds of the pea plant, commonly used in soups and stews. Originating from ancient agricultural traditions, they are a staple in cuisines worldwide, including Indian, Scandinavian, and North American dishes. Packed with nutrients, split peas are an excellent source of plant-based protein, fiber, and complex carbohydrates, making them ideal for sustained energy. They also deliver essential vitamins and minerals like folate, iron, and potassium while being naturally low in fat. The high fiber content supports digestive health and helps maintain stable blood sugar levels. Split peas are cholesterol-free and contribute to heart health when incorporated into a balanced diet. However, their dense carbohydrate profile may require portion control for those monitoring carb intake. Affordable and versatile, split peas offer a nutritious addition to vegetarian, gluten-free, and overall healthy eating plans.
