Happy Meatless Monday guys! Today’s recipe is Creamy Pea Soup – ready in just a few minutes, this soup is rich, creamy and absolutely delicious!
And guess what? My kids actually liked it, well not loved it but they ate their small bowls which made me very pleased. After all, this was green and white soup – a ‘no no’ food colours for my eldest. 🙂
I myself absolutely loved it, especially with some of the homemade croutons I’d made (lots of them actually). They were so fresh, crunchy, with lots of olive oil and spices, just perfect with the soup. To make them simply use some stale bread, chop it up, drizzle generously with olive oil, add some oregano, garlic, basil, thyme and bake in the oven till golden.
It’s been ages since I’ve posted a MM recipe but life’s quite busy right now and I obviously need to improve my organisational skills. 🙂 I’m happy if I manage to post one single recipe weekly at the moment. However, I’m positive I’ll be back to posting 2-3 weekly recipes soon, hopefully. 🙂
So what’s actually in the soup? There’s carrots, potatoes, shallots, garlic, double cream and cheese. Nom, nom, nom.. It’s one of the easiest soups ever (the tastiest one too) so there’s no excuse to not make it. All it’s gonna take is just a few minutes.
It’s delicious for lunch, dinner or why not a starter. For the meat lovers, I’d recommend adding some crispy bacon on top. 🙂 But to be honest it tastes amazing with these lovely golden croutons. It doesn’t feel like it needs anything else. It’s just perfect the way it is – simple but super tasty.
