2 T olive oil

kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
12 cups chicken broth
28 oz. can crushed tomatoes
1 1/2 cups split peas

Description
In a very large soup pot or Dutch oven, heat oil over medium heat. Add the leeks, season with salt and pepper, and saute for about 8 minutes until they are wilted. Raise the heat to high, add broth and crushed tomatoes, and bring to a simmer. Add the split peas, return to a simmer, then lower the heat and simmer partially covered for 30 minutes.
Add the rice and simmer another 10 minutes, then add the sausage and simmer for 20 minutes until rice and peas are tender.
