I substituted with vegetable stock as that is what I had on hand. Also, had no bay leaves so i put fresh rosemary from my garden. Amazing amount of flavour for such a simple and affordable recipe. Thank you

This was the best pea soup I ever made! I used red bliss potatoes, which was fantastic. Delicious!

This is a fantastic recipe, become a fall/winter staple in our house, and it's SO EASY to make vegan! Substitute the 3 tbsp of butter for either Earth Balance vegan butter or olive oil and proceed as the recipe instructs. I also love to make this with white yams—adds a new level of flavor. Super good. Thanks Martha :)

Loved this. I usually overcook the added veggies, but following these instructions, it came out perfectly.

VERY GOOD AND EVEN BETTER THE NEXT DAY GIVEN TIME FOR ALL THE FLAVORS TO INCORPORATE TOGETHER. THE POTATOES ARE OPTIONAL, MY HUSBAND USED TO LOVE THEM BUT NOW PREFERS SWEET POTATOES AS THEY HAVE MORE FLAVOR.
