Pea Soup recipe
When we were at my Grandma’s, my Aunt cooked this for Nathan and he liked it. Well the adults probably enjoyed it more than N because it was super tasty. As always though, recipe that passed down through generations never have exact measurement. The amount of chicken stock needed will depend on your desired consistency. I made mine slightly runny because it’s easier for N. Day 2 after we’re back from a long holiday, this easy and quick dish saved our hungry tummy! Thank you left over frozen peas!!
