Recipe: Spicy Split Pea Soup (WW)

coconut milk

🥗Healthier: almond milk

💰Cheaper: heavy cream

Almond milk reduces calories while maintaining creaminess.

split peas

🥗Healthier: lentils

💰Cheaper: dried beans

Lentils are often cheaper and cook faster.

olive oil

🥗Healthier: avocado oil

💰Cheaper: canola oil

Canola oil is more affordable and has a neutral flavor.

vegetable broth

🥗Healthier: homemade broth

💰Cheaper: water

Water is a cost-effective base, but homemade broth adds depth.

Heat olive oil in a large pan.

Add Thai curry paste to the hot oil and toast it to release the flavors.
