Split 'Em Up Pea Soup (WFPBNO)
Prep Time
10 minutes
Cooking Time
25 minutes
Yields
3 servings at 440 calories each
Ingredients
2 cups green split peas
3-4 medium sized carrots
4 cups water
1/2 large yellow onion
1/2 tsp ground black pepper (put in after pressure cooking is over)
2 garlic cloves, minced
3 cups veggie broth
Directions
Chop up the onion and mince the garlic. Throw those in to the Instant Pot along with 1/3 cup of water and hit the sautee button. Let it sautee for about 5-7 minutes until the onions become translucent.
Combine the remaining ingredients (except the black pepper) in to the Instant Pot. Place the lid on and set it to 7 minutes on manual high pressure. This soup is a quickie in the iPot. Make sure the steam release handle is set to 'sealing'.
When the time is complete, let the iPot naturally release for 15 minutes. You may want to let it cool down for a few minutes. Add in your black pepper & use your immersion blender to blend the soup. Use short zaps so that you still leave some chunks. If you don't have an immersion blender, ladle 3/4 of the soup in to a blender, then reintroduce once blended with the rest of the soup.
Enjoy!
If the soup is too thick, try adding in a bit more water. Remember that it thickens up when it cools down!
