Tonight I made a soup we haven't had in a while. It is a pea spinach soup, an old recipe from Martha Stewart. I tore the recipe out of the magazine years ago and still keep it tucked into another cookbook. Because its best made with fresh English peas, I thought having a kid now would make cooking this soup impossible. I was so wrong. It was a great project to share with Nico. I brought the peas outside with the colander and Nico helped shell them. He was really into it and was intrigued by the whole process. It's a super easy soup to make and very healthy. It's creamy without the cream (skip steps 4 and 5 on this link that call for cream to decorate the soup... oh martha!) It's so green and bright that you feel instantly energized after eating it.We had some warm rustic bread with it. Nico ate the soup too, I'm sure it reminded him of his early days of purees.
