This recipe came about because Dwayne wanted peas with his roast chicken. What the…?? It is simple; we currently do not have a freezer on SV Thorfinn but had to buy 500 grams of frozen peas to go with the roast chicken dinner we cooked the night before. Therefore, we had 3.5 cups of defrosted peas to use… hence green pea soup. It is so simple and easy to make and, believe it or not, it is delicious.
