Creamy Pea and Mint Soup | Slimming World Friendly Recipe

A delicious take on an old classic, the pea and mint soup. Perfectly tasty, filling and Syn free when following the Slimming World plan.

Is there any soup more striking than a vibrant pea soup? It’s actually one of the first dishes I remember making at school in Home economics.. just a few years ago… *coughs*. Actually I think I have the lovely Mrs Clapton to thank for my love of cooking. Sadly however she did not teach me that making cookies and stodgy jam sponge pudding would turn me into a podgy mess one day! I do hope children are better educated about food nowadays.

Anyhoo, this beautiful pea and mint soup is enough to warm up anyone on a cold winters evening. It is so quick, easy and cheap to make that you will have the whole family coming back for seconds every time.

Looking to take this soup to work?

My dad actually recommended this product after he started his weight loss journey. He is obsessed with homemade soup (and his soup maker may I add..) and he was desperate to take soup to work. His company is tight and wouldn’t fork out for a microwave so he invested in this awesome soup thermos. It will keep food hot for up to 6 hours! Perfect for soup, porridge, curry etc.
