This super healthy green soup is made with just plenty of green veggies, I used peas so it wouldn't be too bitter, and also a dash of coconut milk to make it creamier but without using dairy.

Ingredients

  • 1/2 head broccoli

  • 1/2 pack baby spinach leaves (2 cups)

  • 1 large leek

  • 4 cloves garlic

  • 2 cups cooked peas

  • 4 cups vegetable broth

  • salt and pepper to taste

  • handful of parsley leaves

  • 1/2 cup coconut cream / milk

  • 1 tbsp olive oil

Instructions

  1. Wash all the veggies, and roughly chop the garlic, leeks and broccoli into small chunks

  2. Cook the peas and drain

  3. Heat the olive oil gently in a large frying pan, add the garlic, leeks and broccoli

  4. Saute for 5 minutes

  5. Add the spinach and let it wilt slightly

  6. Add the veggies to a blender, with the remaining ingredients and whiz until smooth

  7. You’ll probably have to do this in 2 batches to be safe!

  8. Serve while still hot
