Instructions

Layer the leeks, onion, and potatoes into the bottom of the pot. Add the ham bone, split peas, garlic, thyme, and bay leaves. Pour the chicken broth and water on top of everything.
Cook on high for 4-6 hours, or until the peas disintegrate into the broth and the potatoes are tender. Use a fork to remove and shred any remaining meat from the ham bone. Discard the ham bone. Remove the bay leaves and stir the soup.
Season with salt and pepper to taste. Serve now or reduce heat to low and hold for an additional hour or two.
