Day off, making frugal pea soup!
Tuesday, January 13, 2009
My friend called me last night sick as a dog. Sounds like he's got a very bad flu. So this morning I woke up and made him some pea soup which I will bring to his house for lunch as I have the day off. This is what I did
1 cup split peas (green)
6-8 cups veggie broth or water
1 small onion
1 large carrot
1 large potato
Place the water and peas in a large pot, bring to boil then simmer for at least 30mins until peas are tender. Add chopped/peeled veggies and cook for another 45mins. Add salt & pepper to taste. I also added one veggie chili hot dog sliced thinly. Inexpensive soup that will give lots of vitamins and some protein!
It's very very cold out, so the soup will warm him up and I will keep the rest for my sweetie and I for dinner to eat with some english muffins which i bought on sale (3 packages for $2.50!). Was going to make cookies but the bus is in 30mins so I don't have time. Maybe tomorrow :)
