 Directions

This is the good part. Saute onions and garlic in water till starting to
turn yellow, add all other ingredients in a large pot with 2 1/2 cups of
water and bring to a boil. Reduce heat, simmer an hour (or until peas are
tender) and then puree in a blender. That's it!

Serve as a main meal with whole wheat pita bread. For a variation, sprinkle
fresh ripe diced tomato on top of soup (or this can be blended in earlier).
For those who remember the days when pea soup used to have h*m or b*c*n in
it, soy baco-bits, sprinkled in just before serving, brings back that aura.
