Creamy Pea Soup image

I love this soup because it simply simmers by itself on the stovetop. People are surprised to hear that it has only 1 gram of fat per serving because the texture is so creamy. -Tracy Fay, Redmond, Oregon

I love how easy this soup is to make. I just threw all the ingredients in my slow cooker and let it do its thing. Dinner was ready when I got home from work!

This soup is the perfect comfort food for a cold winter day. It's hearty and filling, and the peas add a nice pop of color.

I'm not usually a fan of pea soup, but this recipe changed my mind. It was so creamy and flavorful, and the peas were cooked to perfection.

This creamy pea soup was an absolute delight! The flavors were perfectly balanced, with a subtle sweetness from the peas and a hint of mint that really brought the dish together.
