It was really lovely with the coconut milk. As a plus, my husband liked it a lot--and I'm not so sure he's loved pea soup in the past. Thanks so much--love it.Dr. H. https://www.blogger.com/profile/09658250975108229221noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1692852390886802172.post-90748497163751688202009-02-15T14:46:00.000-08:002009-02-15T14:46:00.000-08:00I thought it sounded great with the lentils but wi...I thought it sounded great with the lentils but with peas--double yum!<BR/><BR/>Thanks for coming to Souper Sundays.

Wow it is hard to cook for people who have special dietary choices and that would make me nervous that I would somehow forget and use chicken broth instead of veggie broth.
