We really liked this. I soaked the peas overnight to cut down on cooking time, and added the carrots onion and celery all at once. I also used vegetable broth instead of water. Because I didn’t have potatoes on hand I stirred in canned potatoes at the end. Will make again
Delicious! The only thing I did differently was I chopped up the carrots and celery instead of slicing them.
This is truly comfort food. It's rich, creamy taste is excellent with crusty French bread. It is great for cold weather, but we love it anytime.
This soup was very good.
I added a pint of heavy whipping cream at the end and served with corn bread.

It is very tasty but this way of cooking is not great because why do we need cook celery and onion not with another weg.? It is easly tp cook together with carrots ets and onion and celery will not be so mashy. I cooked the peas little bit with salt till partly cooked then I have added everything at once.
Nice twist to pea soup. worked great and very easy.
Very delicious soup.
Typical pea soup haters, my kids and I all love this recipe. It's great when you have just a handful of carrots, celery, and potatoes leftover.
