Healthy Chilled Pea Soup

Went to 11 Madison Ave for dinner a while back, totally in love with their dishes.  BF got me a recipe book that I think I may share few (easy) ones (that I can handle...) ^^

This Garden pea chilled soup was one of the appetizers, not only it tastes good and fresh, it's also  very healthy and easy to make.

Just like NYC, Chicago has so many neighborhood gems that you don't want to miss!
