I have indeed had the misfortune of trying split pea soup, and I literally can't think of a more vile and disgusting soup.
There's something wrong with the way your soup was prepared.
Diced carrots, onion, celery. Saute in butter until ready. Add rinsed split peas, a few bay leaves, salt and pepper. Ham and a ham bone really make this, but make sure there's not too much ham. That means too much salt. Put those in and cover with (ideally home made, no salt) stock. Cook until done. Remove bone, return meat and cartilage to soup.
So much fiber, so tasty. Everyone is entitled to their own opinions (I really, really despise green beans), but some opinions are less good than others.
There's nothing that can possibly be bad in that.
Minestrone ... ?
Pasta fagioli for me.
The texture of pasta and beans together is just all wrong.
Anyway, if you make homemade stock, that stock plus anything is delicious soup.
Someone get this heathen a bowl of homemade ham and bean soup
