The unique blend of curry and coriander add spice to this otherwise sweet and creamy soup. Rich in fiber, iron and protein, as well as low in fat, the humble pea never fails to please the palate.

Customer Rating: Summary: Easiest, Best Tasting Split Pea Soup Comment: The Women's Bean Project Spicy Split Pea Soup is one of those comfort foods that you hated and turned your nose up as a child; then one day you decided to taste it again --and WOW - you wonder what made you dislike it as a child. Although it is not the most attractive looking soup, it is certainly one of the tastiest! All of the bean project soups are easy to prepare and the best part is that they come with the most perfect seasonings! This soup just makes you feel cozy and satisfied - it is spicy but not so much that you have to chase it with water - just enough to override the blandness of the pea. Customer Rating: Summary: great soup Comment: This is the best pea soup mix. The spice balance is just right. Customer Rating: Summary: MaryinMinnesota Comment: I love the soups from the Women's Bean Project. They are actually priced better on Amazon.com then on their own web page, so it is easier to order here. Also, the money goes to a worthy cause: Teaching women skills (e.g. computer, office) so that they can support themselves and their families. The soups come fairly complete with a spice package. Usually you will only require a can of tomatoes, but I like to add celery, carrots, cubed ham, hot sauce, whatever! The cornbread they sell is also delicious, very moist and sweet.
