Super Greens Soup
This Super Greens Soup with Chickpeas is exactly what it claims to be: a quick and simple green soup. Not fussy nor fancy, and it is also simple to prepare. With a hint of garlic and onion, as well as a hint of bitterness from the leafy green vegetables, the flavors are light and airy. There are definitely brighter and more interesting soups out there, but if you’re looking for a simple, healthy way to eat more greens that isn’t a green juice, smoothie, or salad, this soup is the way to go.
This recipe soup is great for hurried lunch breaks at home. These natural plant-based soups are perfect for the celebration of St. Patrick’s Day. However, this super green soup is also delicious in the summer; vary it according to what’s in season. Leftovers can be stored in the refrigerator for up to two days; otherwise, freeze once completely cool. This recipe, which is suitable for all ages, is a great way to get kids to eat their greens (and beans), and no one can resist dipping some delicious bread into something equally delicious.
I swear this is gonna be your favorite vegan soup choice.
