Very Veggie Soup
This recipe makes for a big pot of pureed veggie goodness! Whenever I make this recipe, I am left with enough soup to last a few days (for 2 people). It’s texture is smooth and hearty, yet the broccoli flavor really comes through. It’s a multivitamin in a bowl!

This was soo yummy, I needed something during my juice fast that would help me encorperate more veggies without ruining my health goals and this soup fits the bill perfectly. I added a handful of spinach and kale, omitted the butter and oil, and used regular vegetable stock instead of the concentrated stuff… A drop of sriracha spices things up nicely too!
That sounds yummy!!
