Green Pea Soup

I love the taste of green peas but HATE their texture... with this soup I can finally eat them, it's so good and tasty, and so easy to make (and clean up after), I LOVE IT ! 🤩 I tried the croutons as well, a bit salty so I'll be more careful next time, but otherwise very good ! I think this just became a new favorite in my home, thanks 😁

And bonus point : it was a good way of emptying some stuff from my freezer to clean it up 😅 all those tiny pieces of bread that we never used finally served their life purpose 🤣 and the peas had been there for a while too, since I couldn't figure out how to eat them.
By the way I added 2 small potatoes and less water (~0.7L) so it was closer to a liquid puree texture, just the way we love soup here 🤤

Aw thanks a bunch for sharing your experience with the green pea soup recipe, Mél! It means so much 🤗

I tried this recipe tonight, and I have to say, it’s the best soup I’ve ever had! I’ve made green pea soup/sauce using another recipe before, but yours is definitely more to my taste. Thanks so much for sharing!

Une recette qui n'est pas à mon goût . Ce n'est pas grave il y en a plein d'autres à faire (le mélange oignons et petits pois ne m'a jamais plu, j'ai mis du jus de citron pour casser la douceur)

Hey Marguerite , this soup recipe indeed pulls a bulk of flavours from the green peas and onion. We hope you enjoy some of the other soup recipes that might suit your taste more. Thanks for giving it a try! :)

Many thanks for this recipe! I make this each time when I need something quick and healthy. Sometimes I add a carrot and bay leaves or/and a rib of celery and other herbs. All the best to you and your team, Sadia.

👍. Nice and easy. I just added a block of tofu to the soup before blending. Super creamy 🤤

Really tasty but I need to remember to make in advance in future because it took hours to cool down before I could blend it!

While I was away from home, my freezer thawed. This recipe turned out to be a success, because not only did I use defrosted peas and edamame, but it also turned out delicious :) I will come back to this recipe. Quick and tasty ❤️

Hi Natalia, aw we hope your freezer is okay! Glad to hear that the green pea soup was enjoyed as well 🤗✨

So easy to make and very tasty!
I swapped edamame for quite a big zucchini and it turned out great:)

This was a tasty soup.

I make this one regularly, I love it ! Had it with the whipped tofu in toast recipe today, goes really well together & adds protein !

Mmm what a delicious pairing, Stéphanie! Thank you 🙌

I love green peas and it was such a good choice to try this recipe as I take my first steps into the soup territory of cooking! I loved it so much and it was totally different from the way we serve them at home so I guess this is going into the recipe book!

Very simple but full of flavour

Quick and easy to make and very delicious

This tastes amazing and such a nice way to add protein ( with the edamame)

such a quick and easy recipe! cozy and fresh
thank you 💚

I was given a very large bag of frozen peas and found this recipe when looking for ways to use them. Had all the ingredients on hand and made this soup tonight. It was definitely easy. Packed with nutrients and very filling. Enjoyed the texture/ consistency. I was a little disappointed that it mostly just tasted like peas - was hoping for a little more flavor, but overall, made a nice and simple meal. I think some crumbled bacon on top would be delish with this. Thank you for the recipe!

PUL Team - Oct. 30, 2023, 5:37 p.m.

Hey there, Sunshine, thanks for sharing your experience with the soup! We love adding homemade croutons to elevate the flavour of the soup in case you're interested 🤗

This was so cheap and easy to make! My husband says peas aren't his favorite but he loves this! I wish I'd made a double batch.

This soup is more than perfect. I love it, and my hubby too. Autumn just started and it's time for more soups. Thank you for your lovely receipts and all the work you do! Thank you for the app, too! The best I've tried until now. Even before the app, your blog and your YouTube channel have something different. Thinking that it's the love you put in everything you do, you Sadia and all your team. God bless you! 🙏 Keep the good work! THANK YOU!

SOOOO easy, tasty and filling! Thanks!

I soaked the cashews in hot water for 30ish mins because I didn’t have a lot of time and when I used a high-powered stand mixer, it blended wonderfully. Truly fantastic - a staple now for me, thank you Sadia and team!

Thank you for sharing your experience with the green pea soup, Sonya, its means so much 🤗

I didn’t have enough time to soak the cashews so I omitted them. It still turned out very delicious and creamy.

I did something wrong here, it’s tricky with cooking in the metrics system, cause I think I had waaay to much liquid. It ended up being kind of like flavoured water 😅😬

This is a delicious, easy, cheap and quick soup I will definitely make more often! Also great to get your proteins and legumes in :)

This recipe is not only delicious, but also very quick and cheap to make. I often make this ever since I started college because I am on a tight budget. I didn't have any cashews so I skipped them, swapped dried thyme with dried oregano, but still turned out great. I highly recommend making this with the croutons. I just pan fried a slice of bread with some dried herbs and spices and the meal is instantly filling.

Lovely soup. My children also like this one and they mostly just like tomato soup by very well known brand.

Lovely taste, and an easy recipe with few ingredients!

Easy peasy! And delicious:) And love those croutons.

I highly recommend to top this soup with vegan sausages or smoked tofu. :)
I love this dish and my boyfriend (a non vegan) loves it, too.

In general, thanks for sharing recipes that help people to include more and more vegan recipes in non-vegan households.

Super delish and a quick, easy recipe! I love soup and this one has become a regular go-to for midweek nights. I also love the spice mix for the croutons!

Spot on! Another PUL masterpiece. Thanks for always giving classic recipes a new twist :)

Delicious and nutritious!

Is there anything I can use as a substitute for cashews? (Also hi I've been loving your soup recipes and trying them all out one at a time)

PUL Team - Feb. 8, 2022, 11:01 p.m.

Hey Effy! The cashews serve to make the soup a little bit thicker. You could leave them out entirely, or substitute them for some pre-soaked sunflower seeds, or equal parts unsweetened plant-based creamer, like soy creamer or oat creamer. We hope you enjoy the soup 😊

This is one of my go-tos. I love to make a double batch and freeze leftovers for quick lunches and dinners. Thank you!

I had these frozen peas and edamame sitting in the freezer for a while and I just had to use them but I’m not a fan of peas so I didn’t know where to start. I’m so glad for pick up limes and this recipe, this soup will definitely be a staple for the cold months . Nourishing, Simple, and delicious !

Lovely soup and delicious. Thank you for this great recipe. <3

It was absolutely delicious! Thank you for the simple, yet superb recipe! Xo

Who would have thought pea soup could taste so great to an 8 and 11 year old!? My kids love this soup and I love that it has lots of great things in it to nourish their bodies. We've had it in a bread bowl from time to time and love how easy and great it is!

PUL Team - Aug. 31, 2021, 2:11 a.m.

Mmm love the bread bowl idea, Becca, thanks a bunch for sharing 🤩

Love this recipe! Made it without thyme and with green bell peppers...and it tasted superb! Thank you so much for this recipe! <3

This recipe was absolutely delicious. The blend of flavors is really approachable and comforting.

I unfortunately struggled with the texture on this one. I used a good immersion blender that has worked well in other applications. No matter how long I spent blending, I was never able to break up the "skins" of the peas. The dried thyme, in addition, remained twiggy after cooking. So I sort of had to chew the soup, but hey, I happily ate the entire batch anyway.

My takeaway is that getting a nice, smooth texture might be more difficult for us folks who don't have high-powered blenders, and that fresh thyme might be a nice addition. But all in all, I'm game to try it again!

PUL Team - July 25, 2021, 6:42 a.m.

Thank you for sharing, Ash! A high powdered blender and giving it some time to blend are definitely helpful for this one :)

Tried this recipe today! It turned out to be absolutely delicious. The whole family loved it too. Truly a hug in a bowl!

Another amazing student friendly dish - great for lazy days, especially when I treat myself to some nice, sourdough or Turkish bread. Thank you!

Nice and light green soup. Love the vibrant color but it wasn't substantial enough to be a meal in itself for us, so I would recommend pairing it with something as well.

PUL Team - July 12, 2021, 7:34 a.m.

We appreciate the review, Victoria! We'd recommend pairing the soup with croutons (pickuplimes.com/recipe/crispy…) or as a side with a more savoury dish such as our loaded avocado and hummus veggie sandwich (pickuplimes.com/recipe/loaded…) if you're interested :)

Reply

We love this super healthy soup, even my 11 and 8 year old boys. Delicious!

My little kids and I love this soup it is so simple to make. We love the croutons as well. I was thinking what could we serve along with it if we want the soup as a side dish. What are the flavors/meal ideas would go with it ? Thank you

PUL Team - May 24, 2021, 7:37 a.m.

So lovely to hear you and your little ones are enjoying the soup, Meriem! We've enjoyed the soup as a side with savoury sandwiches, such as our loaded avocado and hummus veggie sandwich, rich quinoa and red lentil stuffed sweet potatoes, and our creamy green leek and pea pasta. If you're interested in any of these recipes, you can search for them on the website. Let us know if you serve it with any good pairings 😀

Hello! What is the serving size (in mls) of the soups that the nutritional information is based on? :)

PUL Team - May 22, 2021, 11:35 p.m.

Hey Bec, a serving is around 1.5 cups (375 mL) although in real life it may depend on some factors such as how long you leave the soup on the stove as some will evaporate or how big the onion used is 😊
