Basic Green Vegetable Soup.

BASIC GREEN VEGETABLE SOUP. By Kristen Suzanne.


Remember, you can always add in your favorite herbs and vegetables to put your own spin on it. 


Spinach- great source of vitamin K, which helps you build stronger bones. Also a great source of iron. It's better assimilated in the body when in the presence of vitamin C (found in the fresh lime in this recipe).

2 1/2 cups water
1 cup romaine chopped
1 cup packed spinach
3 tablespoons fresh lime juice
1/2 teaspoon kelp or more to taste
1/2 teaspoon Himalayan salt
1 banana peeled
1 avocado pitted and peeled
2 tablespoons fresh basil chopped or 2 teaspoons dried
2 tablespoons green onion chopped.

Blend all ingredients except avocado, basil, and green onion. Add the avocado and blend until smooth. Pulse in the basil and green onions.

Wasn't sure about that banana at first:) I think it just added an extra creaminess.




When I first tasted this, I wasn't sure about it. It has a very interesting taste. It grew on me  with every bite. It's always good to try new and different tastes. See what you think!
