I so enjoy creating healthy spins on classic recipes. Really. I giggle, laugh and think to myself when I finally find the perfect set of ingredients for a recipe, eating healthy really is this easy and delicious! Surely everyone I know would LOVE this recipe if they’d just give it a try, and this recipe is one from the new FREE Bonus for More Than A Detox: Fall, Soupify, 10 Healing Soups to Detox, Lose Weight and Beautify.
This super simple pea soup recipe is nutritious, rich and creamy, satisfying and delicious! Double-up the recipe to store in the fridge for the next few days.
Peas are high in fiber and antioxidants, low in fat and calories, plus a unique array of health-protective phytonutrients.
