Pea-licious!
My friend Margaret came over for lunch today and I made this really nice Pea Soup. Quick, easy and very good.what you need:
1 small onion, finely diced
1 large potato, diced
750ml of vegetable stock (and I think it's worth it to find this one)
250g frozen peas
3 sprigs of fresh mint (keep these whole because you'll remove them later)
what to do:
Heat a bit of olive oil in a pot and add the onion. When it has softened, add the potato and cook for 5 more minutes.
Then add the peas, the stock and the mint sprigs. Let this come to a boil and then simmer for 15 minutes.
Take the pot off the heat, and remove the mint sprigs.
Puree the soup. Season with salt and black pepper to taste.
Seriously, it's really good. I served it with a tomato and feta salad, and some nice bread.
If you try this, let me know if you liked it!

Conor would love your soup. Peas are his favorite vegetable. He likes them mashed, whole and even frozen from the bag.
Hope all is well. Tell everyone hello and we can't wait to se you in a few short weeks.
Love,
Brother Mike
The soup was fantastic, we made it tonight!
We were trying to come up with other "main vegetable/herb" combos for this type of soup and have come up with carrot/thyme and artichoke/??. Will let you know how they work out.
