Blended soups are an awesome option for folks who want to get in more vegetables with a smoother texture!
They’re also ridiculously simple. Perfect for cleanses or anytime you want a light, nutritious meal. High speed blenders definitely make a difference.
The staples are broth and vegetables ~ raw or cooked.
I often do a blend of raw and cooked and usually add a handful of fresh herbs &/or sprouts as well.
Add avocado, hemp seeds or sunflower seeds if desired.
My favorite:
~ 3 cups broth (heated ahead of time)
1 large or 2 medium carrots, cooked or raw
1 baked potato
Handful of fresh basil, parsley or both
~1 cup green beans (I usually do these raw)
Sprouts
Blend & serve!
I often make a blended soup after making a batch of broth, so I’ll just pull some of the vegetables I’ve strained out from the broth itself, i.e: garlic, carrots, celery, onion. Mmmmmm.
