These are available in both green and yellow varieties; they have a sweet, strong pea flavor.  Best known for pea and ham soup, split peas can also be found in Middle Eastern soups and stews.

  2. Yes, they are very healthy, full of proteins. I usually use the orange ones, or red lentils as they are called. Like your friend Laurie I have never used the green ones.
