Hi Sharon! Good question, and the answer is yes, you can use yellow split peas instead of green.

Flavor wise: The yellow peas taste more earthy and less pea-y.

Texture wise: Yellow split peas break down faster than green split peas do.

Combo wise: It may give an interesting appearance to the soup, providing you don't use an immersion blender then the dual color-effect would be lost.

This green split pea soup in a slow cooker is like heaven in a bowl. The split peas tend to "melt" and OMG, if you haven't made it yet, get busy! You'll thank me later!
