No blender split pea soup recipe with celery

This split pea soup recipe is warm and hearty, a satisfying whole healthy meal that's vegan. A healing anti-inflammatory split pea soup that you don't need to blend...

When I was creating this no blender split pea soup recipe with celery recipe, I totally ignored that there is an ocean of split peas soup recipes with celery and carrots out there! This vegan version, however, is a bit different from other soups it has all the textures and flavors that you'll not find in other split pea soup variations.

This split pea soup recipe, calls for more chewing than the classic soup variation. We find it really interesting and the soup is more filling. Really, you don't need to blend this soup.

It's also beneficial for your teeth as chewing is important in maintaining strong teeth and jaws.

Moreso, what I love about this split pea recipe is that you'll enjoy it as well spend some extra time with your family or friends at the table.

I don't know if you have ever noticed, the fast you finish your dinner plate, the lesser time you spend with your loved ones at the dining table.

This split pea recipe is easy and you have several options on how to cook it. You can go for the instant pot if you have one or you can opt for a slow cooker.

I use a stovetop and still, I reduce the classic cooking time because I normally soak the dry split green peas for the whole day or night.

This healthy green split soup is a whole dish on its own, you don't need anything else. It's filling and loaded with minerals and dietary fiber, it's really a comforting meal.

If you have some vegetable broth, it will turn this dinner into a very delicious meal. I had made some vegetable broth with pineapple skin (sound funny?), leeks' greens, dried herbs, pepper, and salt…

Is split pea soup healthy for you?

Oh yes, this split soup recipe comes with a couple of health benefits.

• Celery will give you a lot of antioxidants that will help you fight inflammation, skin infections, reduce cholesterol, manage blood pressure and improve digestion as well as manage your weight.
• I chose to add celery just at the end so that you don't lose all the vitamin C, since it's very sensitive to heat.
• SPLIT PEAS
• They're a good source of minerals like Molybdenum, Copper, Manganese, Folate, Phosphorus, among others
• A very good source of proteins and fiber.
• Additionally, split pea will help in reducing your cholesterol, blood sugar and improve digestion, they're low carb and so will help in losing weight.
• They have Isoflavones, these are phytonutrients that can act like estrogens and can help in reducing the risks of some cancers, eg breast cancer, and prostate cancer.
• CARROTS
• One of the best and easily affordable, source of Vitamin A. They also have Biotin, Vitamin K, Vitamin B6 and C, Molybdenum, Potassium, and fiber.
• Carrots have a high amount of beta- carotene, but they also have other carotenoids.
• In fact, carrots have been associated with reducing Cardiovascular Disease.
• Ever heard of, "eat carrots for your eyes?"
• Improve the health of your eyes by eating carrots regularly.
• In addition, they're also cancer-protective as well as supporting your liver.

Herbs and Spices

I added a handful of herbs like dry basil, dry chive, fresh mint, and fresh curry plant (Helichrysum italicum).

You have spices like cumin, mustard seeds, fresh turmeric, fresh ginger, and freshly ground black with white pepper and cayenne pepper, that offer healing properties and are anti-inflammatory.

Prolong cooking

Celery split pea recipe is not for only adults, my daughter of 6 yrs, appreciate this recipe when I prolong the cooking time. This doesn't turn int soup though, but it's less crunchy.

I serve my portion then I continue the cooking for her sake.
