New Soup Alert: Pea-sy Perfection in a Flash
In a bid to shake off the monotony of mealtime, a clever cook has concocted a delectable and quick fix - a pea soup that's both healthy and delicious. Dubbed 'Easy Pea-sy Soup', this simple recipe leverages a mere 30 minutes to deliver on its promise of a satisfying start to any meal.
The key to this dish lies in the judicious use of everyday ingredients, with onion, olive oil, and peas taking centre stage. Gone are the days of heavy cream - instead, non-fat yogurt provides a tangy kick that elevates the entire dish without adding calories.
So what makes this soup so special? The magic happens when you combine 2 tablespoons of oil, 1 large onion sliced to perfection, and a handful of fresh mint chopped up for good measure. Next, add in 4 teaspoons of plain non-fat yogurt, 4 cups of frozen peas, 2 1/2 cups of water, and 1 cup of vegetable broth - the perfect blend of textures and flavours.
Now, it's time to get your cook on! Simply heat oil in a large pan over moderate heat, add sliced onion and stir occasionally until softened. Add in those peas and continue stirring - then follow up with the water and veggie stock for a 5-10 minute simmer.
Once you're done blending this baby into smooth, creamy goodness, it's time to season and serve. Ladle soup into bowls and sprinkle with salt and pepper, finishing off with a dollop of yogurt and a sprig of fresh mint.
Nutritional stats reveal that each serving packs 155 calories, but don't be fooled - the real magic happens in every bite.
