This soup is great for when you’re at home alone with an empty fridge but want something a bit more nutritious than a bread roll filled with half a slice of cheese.

We’ve always got a packet or two of frozen peas in the freezer, so I make this a lot when I just can’t be bothered to cook for myself. This recipe yields a full cereal bowl of soup so no need to do any math to reduce the amounts of ingredients or times. You’re welcome!
