Ooooo, my favorite (if it wasn't the middle of a heatwave) is Pea soup.
Here's a recipe from an older Better Homes & Gardens cookbook I
have....can't go wrong with this book...

Rinse peas. In a large saucepan combine all ingredients except the final 4
vegetables. Add a dash of pepper. Bring to boiling, reduce heat, cover &
simmer for 1 hour. Stir occasionally. Remove bone. When cool enough to
handle, remove any meat remaining on bone & coarsley chop. Discard bone.
Return meat to saucepan. Stir in remaining vegetables. Return to boiling;
reduce heat. Cover & simmer for 20 to 30 minutes or till vegetables are
crisp tender. Discard bay leaf. Makes 4 main dish servings.
Another quick & easy dish is just ti cook the bone in a big pot of
cabbage...adding seasonings etc to taste as you go! Posted to TNT -
