Give it a crack, there's about $5 worth of ingredients in my soup so if you don't like it it's not an expensive mistake.
I make soups like that all the time....boil some broccoli or cauliflower or asparagus in chicken broth and turn it into a creamy veggie soup with the immersion blender. Then I can add cheese or drizzle olive oil or sprinkle with croutons.
I think that pea soup would be good with a little mint.
