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



ThatBobbieGirl's Better-Than-Campbells Green Pea Soup image

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.......

Time 3h45m

Yield 8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 11

16 ounces split peas
3 quarts water
1 large onion, chopped
2 tablespoons chicken bouillon granules
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
1/2 teaspoon oregano
1/4 teaspoon pepper
1 bay leaf
1 cup chopped celery
1 1/2 cups thinly sliced carrots
lemon juice (optional but recommended)

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.

However, making green peas soup without meat can be challenging, especially if you do not know where to start. In this post, we will give you valuable tips that you can use to make the perfect green peas soup without meat recipe.

Tip 1: Choose Fresh Ingredients

The first step to making great green peas soup without meat is to choose fresh ingredients. Green peas spoil quickly, so it is essential to purchase fresh peas. When purchasing fresh peas, look for peas with a bright green color and firm texture. Also, avoid peas that look wilted or have spots.
Tip 1.1: Frozen peas
If fresh peas are not available or not in season, frozen peas are an excellent substitute. They are convenient, and you can find them year-round. However, ensure that you defrost them before use.

Tip 2: Adding Flavor

Green peas have a natural sweet flavor, but you can enhance the taste by adding different flavors. Herbs, spices, and vegetables are excellent flavor enhancers to add to your soup. Some of the best herbs and spices to add to your soup include thyme, garlic, rosemary, basil, and bay leaves. Vegetables like carrots, potatoes, celery, and onions can also add flavor to your soup.
Tip 2.1: Seasoning the soup
When it comes to seasoning your soup, go easy on the salt. Since peas are naturally sweet, they do not require much salt. You can use black pepper, cumin, or paprika for added flavor.

Tip 3: Cooking Techniques

The cooking technique that you use can make or break your green peas soup without meat recipe. Boiling or over-cooking the peas can make them mushy and tasteless.
Tip 3.1: Blending
Blending the soup to a smooth consistency can give it a creamy texture. This technique works best when using fresh peas, but frozen peas work just as well. You can use an immersion blender or a regular blender to achieve a smooth consistency.
Tip 3.2: Adding Creaminess
To add creaminess to your soup, you can add coconut milk or cream. It will add a rich and creamy flavor without the need for meat.

Tip 4: Improvisation

Finally, do not be afraid to improvise. You can experiment with different ingredients, cooking styles, and spices. Do not be afraid to mix and match different ingredients to create your own unique green pea soup without meat recipe.
Tip 4.1: Vegetable Broth
If you want to add some richness to your soup, you can use vegetable broth instead of water. It will add extra flavor to your soup without adding any meat.
Tip 4.2: Adding cream
You can also add sour cream or heavy cream, which will give an extra creamy texture to your soup.

Conclusion

Green peas soup without meat is a healthy and delicious meal that is perfect for any season. By following the tips we have outlined, you can create a delicious soup that is full of flavor and nutritious. Remember to choose fresh ingredients, add flavor, perfect your cooking technique, and experiment with different ingredients to create your own unique recipe.
