A bowl of green soup with ultimate comfort and goodness from all the greens, literally.
This is one kind of soup,I make often in our home, and believe me,you won’t even smell the rawness of greens. its rich and creamy and makes a fulfilling bowl that can be served as a mid day meal or as a breakfast/dinner.
Now, it even gets easy for you to make your little fussy eater to eat their greens. no wonder they will surely comeback with a clean bowl.
I got inspired by this recipe through a cookbook, and made it to my own terms of comfort. you can skip the spices I used here in the recipe. but, I highly recommend you to add them if you can, as they add a unique flavour.
sometimes when I feel like having this bowl of comfort during peak winters, i’m unwillinglly forced to nil the use of fresh mint, as we don’t get mint in season at our place. but, it is still flavored the best.
you can also add dried mint at the end, for the flavor, or you can add the fresh mint if it is available at your place. but, I definitely recommend you to add them to get all the goodness and divine flavors.
now, let’s get into the recipe.
