  We made this for new year and as we love peas think it's great. Don't try it, if you don't like peas though.

  Really nice soup, I am not a fan of peas not even my husband but we loved it. I served this in shot glassses as an appetizer at a party and people came for more.

  For such a simple soup this tastes amazing! Left out the cream and added some ham (christmas leftovers!). Will definately make again.
