Super Greens Soup
So, I saw an idea of making a large batch of soup to dine and snack on for a few days or throughout a week. or another idea is to eat only this soup for a couple days to detox or get ready for a diet. Either way this is a great source of vitamins and a very healthy recipe for anytime. I changed a few things from the recipes I saw to create something I like better.
recipe:
1 lg bag chopped fresh Kale
1 bg fresh spinach
1 c chopped fresh broccoli
1/2 c diced carrots
3 c organic vegetable broth or water
1 chopped yellow onion
2 T olive oil
1 cup cooked brown rice
dash cayenne
salt and pepper
white truffle oil
Put olive oil in to a large pot on med/high heat for 1 minute, add onions and 1/4 t salt. cook onions 5 minutes till browned. add in 1 c broth and put lid on pot, turn heat down to low. cook 10 minutes stirring occasionally till liquid has reduced.
Put rice and remaining broth in to pan, stir together. add kale stirring as you can, pot will be very full (kale cooks down alot!) cook on medium heat for 8-10 minutes, stirring as the kale cooks down, add spinach, broccoli and carrots. cook another 5 minutes stirring as the greens wilt down. Stir in cayenne pepper.
Take pot off heat and use an immersion blender or place in counter blender. Puree soup to desired consistency. Soup will be very thick. Taste and add salt and pepper to taste. Spoon in to bowl and drizzle a small amount of white truffle oil over the top.
**I hope you love this soup as much as I do. It is very easy to eat alot of it, but no guilt if you do! :)
