Sweet Pea Soup

You Will Need

2+ tablespoons olive oil
Salt and pepper to taste
​1 1/2 cups onion, chopped
7 cups frozen sweet peas (OR two, 1-pound bags)
32 oz box of low-sodium vegetable broth; OR 2 cans (14.25 ounce) chicken or vegetable broth; OR make your own broth by saving the leftover liquid from a boiled chicken or steamed vegetables**

**NOTE: For a thinner-consistency soup, add 2 more cups of vegetable broth (half a box) and freeze the remaining 2 cups for your next soup.

Serves 10+

What To Do

In a large saucepan over medium heat, sauté onion in olive oil until translucent. Season with salt and pepper. 

Add peas and broth, bring to boil and reduce heat to simmer and cook for 20 minutes.  Allow soup to cool and puree in a food processor, blender, or use a stick mixer until velvety smooth.
