Golden Split Pea Soup

Features:

    Tastes wonderful. Since I doubled the recipe it took a while to prepare the vegetables- peeling and chopping sweet potatoes and onions, grinding ginger, cutting the tomato and the like. used the blender and the result is a creamy, golden soup. Low calorie. Worth the effort.

    Golden Split Pea Soup,This is from my Low-Fat Moosewood cookbook. Your house will smell like an Indian restaurant! The soup is a beautiful dark gold color. Dont use green or brown lentils, it just wont be the same. This makes a lot, but you can freeze it. Even my one year old loves this! Serve topped with plain yogurt and chopped cilantro. Pass pita bread.,Tastes wonderful. Since I doubled the recipe it took a while to prepare the vegetables- peeling and chopping sweet potatoes and onions, grinding ginger, cutting the tomato and the like. used the blender and the result is a creamy, golden soup. Low calorie. Worth the effort.,Excellent soup! I expected the color to be more yellow, but it is a lovely vibrant orange. All of the flavors work really well together and make this soup spicy (but not overly hot), savory and a little sweet — nicely balanced! used gala apples, but I would love to try this with something more pungent next time, like granny smith. A great, rich, filling and healthy soup that the whole family enjoyed (19 months and up!) Thanks!
