Simmer dried peas with
onions
mix frozen veg (carrot, pes, corn)
Spices:
salt
curry
parsley topper
Dumplings!
You can make dumplings by combining a biscuit mix with soymilk so the dough is not so sticky & throw them in the boiling soup.
OR
Play with this recipe from vegweb.com :
(I personally use olive oil for the fat and no spices)
“Dumplings
1 1/2 cups white flour
2 tsp baking powder
3/4 tsp salt
2 tb chopped parsley
1/2-1 tsp finely chopped thyme
60g vegan margarine
soymilk to mix
Process ingredients in food processor or rub in margarine with fingers to produce a fine crumb. Add sufficient soymilk to produce a wettish dough. Spoon tablespoonfuls on top of the simmering casserole. Cover and cook for 20 minutes.”
Verdict: Could have used more spices, and a reaffirmation that I only like whole peas.
