    DELICIOUS!!! I use fresh tarragon which adds a nice light freshness. Absolutely love this soup!

    This recipe is yummy and easy to make, but it's a tad bit bland. I have a pretty demanding palate and need for spice, so that could be the reason - I had to add quite a bit more seasoning. But it was a beautiful color and a nice starter or dish for a more heavily-flavored entrée.

    Nothing this easy should be so good!
    First course dinner party recipe instead of salad.
    Make a day or two ahead.
    Go easy on the tarragon, otherwise it is perfect.
    I pair it with a creamy carrot soup and serve the two together in one soup plate, side by side, with a single gentle swirl to make a beautiful and easy presentation. Adjust liquid so they don't run together too much. Peas and carrots soup: both so easy and so springtime! Make double batches and freeze for another go.

    Good, but not AS good as a bowl of split pea soup.

    I found this recipe while I was trying to find a good way to use up my frozen green peas in the freezer.
    It turned out that this soup was more than the leftover soup!
    The green color is beautiful and looks gorgeous.
    I added a spoonful of sour cream on top in stead of yogurt, and the soup was really delicious.

    If you are intimidating about cooking this is the recipe is for YOU. Easy Easy Easy! The color is STUNNING. I added celery and 1 glove of garlic to up the nutrition value and add a little more flavor depth. Also added basil instead of tarragon. I used what I had on hand. My two favorites onion and peas! Can't get any better. I used the plain yogurt to swirl in. I like the sour taste and much healthier for you. i will definitely add this to my monthly mix of mainstay meals.

    This was a snap to put together. I added in 1 tbsp of cream to make it a little creamier, used sour cream since I didn't have yogurt on hand, and sprinkled with chives to make it pretty. : I substituted vegetable broth for chicken broth to keep it vegetarian for my daughter. I even forgot the tarragon but it was still really tasty without it--judging from some of the reviews maybe it turned out better because of it.

    This is Easy, everyone likes it and healthy. You can't ask for more then that. I especially like to start a dinner with this since it is not a heavy soup. My kids like it with sandwiches for lunch or alone as a snack during homework. All around a family favorite!!

    I initally made this soup because I have started to cook things that my 8 month old baby can eat too, as he has mostly given up jarred/pureed baby foods. I figured I could mix this soup with some cereal and if he didn't like it at least I didn't waste an entire jar of food and my family could still eat the rest. This is a VERY yummy recipe! It definately takes frozen green peas to a new level. I LOVE it! My 3 year old daughter-who argues with eating anything lately-ate this without a fight. It was very easy to make as well, taking less than 5 minutes of actual work and about 15 minutes of cook time. I will be making lots of this in the future. Thanks Ellie!
