Hi guys, Jessica here 🙂 When I first discovered this recipe I thought how can something made out of pure green veg taste amazing… well trust me, it does! I adore this soup recipe as its so simple to make. You blend everything in the end which means you can be very quick are carefree with chopping the veg into big chunks and throwing everything into one huge pot. You can also be super flexible with quantities which I find awesome for using up any veg in the fridge that I need to get through. What a perfect trifector- easy and quick, super tasty and comforting, and packed full of nutrients.
