Pea Soup

By marie2

Ingredients

• Ingredients
• 3 TB friendly fat to cook in (butter, coconut oil, tallow, lard)
• 2-3 small/medium chopped onions
• 3-4 cloves minced garlic
• 2 bags (approx 2lbs) organic frozen peas
• 1 – 1 1/2 quarts chicken stock (homemade if possible to avoid MSG and BPA).
• Sea salt/pepper to taste
• Sour cream or cream to stir in or garnish if desired

Preparation

Step 1

Saute the onions in the friendly fat for a few minutes. Add a pinch of salt while they cook to bring the juices out and let them sweeten up and cook.
Add the garlic and cook a minute.
Add the peas and stock and bring to a boil.
Reduce to a simmer until the peas are cooked through – usually about 10-15 minutes.
Add salt/pepper and puree with a handheld blender or in a blender.
