Split Pea Purée

Warming and flavorful for the cold season, this split pea purée is incredibly easy to make and packed with nutrients, including plant-based protein. It’s naturally delicious without any oil, but you can add a drizzle of olive oil before serving if desired.

Best of all, there’s no pre-soaking required.
