  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 1/2 hours. Then add the remaining
  vegetables and seasonings and cook about 45 minutes longer. Add more water
  if necessary.
  
  HELPFUL HINTS: Also can be made without lima beans; in this case, increase
  split peas to 2 cups. Freezes well. Makes a good sandwich spread; also good
  on baked potatoes.
