Steps:
- Melt the butter in a large soup pot over medium high heat. Add chopped onion and minced garlic and cook until soft, stirring frequently so they don't burn, about 5 minutes.
- Add vegetable broth, peas, salt and pepper. Bring to a boil and then cover and simmer until the peas are soft, about 15-20 minutes.
- Using a immersion blender, blend the soup until creamy. Alternatively you could use a blender. If using a blender, carefully put soup in blender in batches, and pulse until creamy, being careful as the soup is very hot. Put soup back in pot if using a blender.
- Add in heavy cream and stir to thicken up. Season with salt and pepper to taste and serve. Optional - add some fresh parsley or mint on top before serving.

SIMPLE HEALTHY GREEN PEA SOUP
Recovering from surgery and a bad case of strep throat, I threw this together to aid my body through recovery. Eating this soup is a great way to pack in the nutrients. Light, clean, filling, and full of flavor. My kids love it. I just add a little milk to cool it down so they can eat it right away.

THATBOBBIEGIRL'S BETTER-THAN-CAMPBELLS GREEN PEA SOUP
My husband issued me a challenge shortly after we were married. I hated paying the price for his favorite soup-in-a-can, Green Pea Soup, by Campbell's. Not the Split Pea, but the one that's creamy smooth. He hates lumpy pea soup! Well, he told me if I could make it "just as good" as the can, he would eat it and I could stop paying a dollar a can (or more). Well, it took me about 8 years, and lots of tries, but I finally got it right. Hey, don't look at me like that, it's not like I was trying for eight years straight. I mean, you can only eat pea soup so often! When I make this now, I usually make a double or triple batch so I can freeze some - it does freeze well. Oh, and no, there is no ham or meat of any kind in this, just some bouillon. I read the can label and saw it contained no meat, unlike the Split Pea Soup. I prefer it this way. By the way, a couple of months ago, I found a foodservice sized can of Green Pea soup at our grocery outlet store, for just over a dollar. At that price, I bought it to have on hand for a quick last-minute meal. My family complained! It was way too salty for their taste now! I guess they're finally weaned. Now if I could just convince the kids that homemade Macaroni & Cheese is better than the Blue Box Stuff.......

Steps:
- Combine everything in a large, heavy-bottomed pot with a lid (use one that holds at least 6 quarts).
- Bring to a boil.
- Reduce heat, cover and simmer, stirring occasionally, for 3 1/2 to 4 hours or until peas are tender and soup reaches desired thickness.
- Puree in blender, or in the soup pot using a handheld stick blender (I love those things!) Re-heat if needed, over very low heat.
- I have slow-cooked this in a crockpot, but was not happy with the results.
- I did it just until the peas were done, but my husband and I agreed it tasted way overcooked, and even adding lemon juice didn't help much.
- Stove-top cooking just until the peas are tender gives this a much fresher taste.
- My family loves this served with freshly baked homemade bread and a tossed salad.
- VEGETARIANS: As is, this is not vegetarian, you can make it so, by substituting salt or a vegetarian bouillon for the chicken bouillon.
- LOW SALT DIETS: This is what I've done this for my mother in law who can't have salt: eliminate chicken bouillon, and add freshly squeezed lemon juice to taste.
- Usually about one lemon does it, but it depends on the size of the lemon.
- I recommend adding a bit of lemon if you're not salt-restricted, along with the bouillon- it's truly wonderful.

Steps:
- Heat the oil in a soup pot. Add the onion and sauté over medium-low heat until translucent. Add the garlic and continue to sauté until both are golden.
- Add the potatoes and just enough water to cover all but about 1/2 inch of the vegetables. Bring to a rapid simmer, then lower the heat. Cover and simmer gently until the vegetables are tender, about 20 minutes.
- Stir in the peas, parsley, and dill, and simmer for 2 to 3 minutes longer.
- Transfer the solid ingredients to a food processor. Process in batches until smoothly pureed or leave a little texture, as you prefer. Transfer back to the soup pot. Or insert an immersion blender into the soup pot and process until the vegetables are pureed to your liking.
- Stir in enough rice milk to give the soup a slightly thick consistency. Season with lime juice, salt, and pepper. Remove from the heat and let the soup cool to room temperature.
- Just before serving, stir in the steamed peas and grated cucumber. Serve at room temperature or refrigerate for an hour or two and serve chilled.
- For a richer soup, whisk in 1/4 cup raw or toasted cashew butter just after removing the soup from the heat.

- See the note below about whether to leave the peels on the cucumbers or not. Either way, cut 1 1/2 the cukes into large chunks. Reserve half of a cucumber and set aside.
- Place the cucumber chunks in a blender along with the peas (reserve about 1/2 cup if you’d like to use them for garnish, but this is optional), scallion, cilantro, dill, optional mint, juice of 1 lime, and the curry. Process until smoothly blended.
- Pour the soup into a serving container. Season with salt and pepper (this is a mild soup, so salt judiciously!); see if you’d like to add more lime juice from another 1/2 to a whole lime.
- Remember that half of a cucumber you set aside? Quarter it lengthwise, thinly slice it, and stir it into the soup (you can set aside a small amount for garnish as well)
