Start with Frozen Peas, the small vegetable with big potential.  Fresh green peas are harvested at their peak and frozen immediately.  Both fresh and frozen peas work for this recipe.

2 tablespoons olive oil
1 cup chopped yellow onion
2 cups chicken or vegetable broth
4 cups frozen peas
3/4 cup loosely packed mint leaves
1 teaspoon kosher salt
1 teaspoon sugar

Directions:

Heat the olive oil in a saucepan over medium heat.  Add the onion and saute for 3 to 4 minutes or until tender.  Add the broth and bring to a boil.

Place the peas, mint, salt, and sugar in a blender.  Blend until smooth.

Pour the hot broth mixture over them and return everything to the saucepan to heat through.  Serve warm.
