Welcome to Bonita's Kitchen; today I'm making pea soup from leftovers.

Using about 4 cups of leftover peas pudding.

Adding 6 cups of vegetable broth to the pot.

Putting the peas pudding into the pot with the broth.

Covering the pot and letting it start to boil on medium heat.

Chopping a small onion into pieces and adding it to the pot.

Cutting leftover cooked potatoes, carrots, and turnip into soup-sized pieces and adding them to the pot.

Cutting a piece of salted pork into chunks and adding it to the soup.

Stirring everything together and letting it cook.

Tasting the broth to check for saltiness before serving.
