Summary (Pea Soup)

This was a scrumptious, filling meal. Super easy to make

Pea Soup (Adam 4/5 Alex 4/5)

Doesn't blow my mind, but it was homely. We enjoyed it in the park and it was one of the best soups I've had as a stand alone meal filler. We used ruffles all-dressed chips as 'soup spoons' which was extra fun!
