Here is a quick and easy vegetarian meal idea perfect for spring. I just used frozen peas, a little mint, and a few other ingredients to make this delicious pureed soup.
Yield: Serves 4
20 oz of frozen and defrosted peas (2 packages)
1 small onion, chopped
1 clove garlic
2 stalks celery, chopped
1 cup vegetable broth or water
1 cup milk or cream
2 tablespoons freshly chopped mint
An immersion blender or regular blender to puree soup
1. Drizzle soup pot with olive oil. Add celery and onions. Saute until tender. Add garlic and saute for 2 – 3 minutes. Add peas and cook until heated through. Add stock or water. Bring to a boil and reduce to a simmer.
2. Simmer for 15 – 20 minutes. Add milk or cream. Heat through but do not boil again. Add mint. Puree with blender or an an immersion blender.
