This comes from the chapter in Laurel’s Kitchen about lunches. It’s a simple spread you can make ahead to fill a sandwich. It is vegetarian, made of whole foods, and about as convenient a lunch as you can pack in a lunch bag. It’s also very good.
1 cup cooked green split peas
2 tablespoons mayonnaise
2 tablespoons Parmesan cheese
2 tablespoons cottage cheese
¼ teaspoon basil
½ teaspoon salt
a dash of black pepper
Mash cooked peas and mixed with other ingredients. Leftover split pea soup may be used as the base, and may eliminate the need for salt.
