Peppery Pea Soup

Directions

1. 1
   Heat olive oil in a pot and add roughly sliced garlic.
2. 2
   Add chopped up scallions and saute for 1 minute.
3. 3
   Add thawed peas, or if you are feeling too lazy, just add them frozen.
4. 4
   Once the peas are coated with oil, add salt and pepper.
5. 5
   Add about a cup of water and cook until peas are done. Don't over cook them. It should take just about 1-2 minutes for this much quantity.
6. 6
   Transfer to a blender and puree.
7. 7
   Put the pureed mixture back in the pot. Don't boil it, just simmer for a few seconds while mixing in the cream.
8. 8
   If it's too thick, just add some water and heat through. If it is too thin, add a little more cream.
9. 9
   Check for salt and pepper, sprinkle the cheese and serve with toasted bread.
