Monthly Meal Idea – No Cook Pea Soup

Packets of fresh shelled baby peas are available if you are busy or if these are not in store then use frozen. This recipe is taken from my cookbook ‘Healthy eating for the menopause’.

 

Serves 4

Preparation: about 15 minutes, plus chilling if serving cold

 

700g/1.5 lb shelled garden peas (about 2kg/4.5lb in the pod)

4 spring onions, quartered

2 celery heart stalks, roughly chopped

1.1    litres/2 pints boiling water or vegetable stock

1-2 tablespoons arrowroot, optional

Freshly ground sea salt and black pepper

Dash of no-sugar Worcestershire sauce

100g/3.5oz thick plain organic yogurt or oat cream

1.5 tablespoons mixed seaweed flakes

Small bunch of chives or mint
