It has been a while since I wrote last. I am back with some news.....my husband and I are expecting our first baby in April 2012! We are very excited. Perhaps through all the changes going on, I needed a break from blogging.
I figured that soup was a good comeback for early fall. This is a vegetarian version and it is really simple and delicious for lunch or light dinner.
1 pound split peas
1 large onion, diced
3 celery ribs, diced
4 garlic cloves, sliced
1 tbsp lemon zest ( from one lemon)
1 tsp Hungarian paprika
1 tsp nutmeg
salt & pepper to taste
1.5 quarts water
-Sweat the vegetables until soft and add the split peas and spices.
-Cover with water and bring to a boil, then simmer until peas are soft.
-Once soft, puree using a hand blender and add zest and check for seasoning.
-Serve with paprika and a little drizzle of olive oil.
