This is a fast starter to any meal! I keep all of these ingredients on hand so when I am scrounging for what to make for dinner this can be made :).

Serve this with a protein and a salad and you will have a well balanced meal!

Green Pea Soup (serves 4)

Ingredients:
1 tbsp Avocado oil
3.5 Cups of Frozen green peas
1 yellow onion diced
1-2 cloves of garlic minced
1 cup chopped potato (about one medium)
4 cups water
1 lemon juiced
3/4 tsp. Himalayan or sea salt

Instructions:
*In a medium saucepan with olive oil saute onion for 3-4 minutes.
*Add the garlic, and potato and saute or another 3 minutes.
*Add the water and salt and bring to a boil. Once boiling reduce to a simmer for 10-15 minutes until potato is tender.
*Add the green peas and continue to simmer for 5 minutes. You don't want to over cook the peas.
*Remove from heat, add the lemon juice. Use and Emerson or Regular blender until smooth.

I sauted a few peas in some avocado oil and salt to top the soup and add a little texture.

Enjoy!
