INGREDIENTS TO MAKE BROCCOLI SOUP

  • Olive oil, buy olive oil that comes in glass bottles or dark packaging. Check the labels and check that it only contains olive oil and is not a mixture of vegetable oils.
  • Onion, you can substitute with shallots. Use the onion at home, yellow, white, red, etc.
  • Garlic. Garlic is full of superpowers, and I love putting it on everything. Did you know that garlic has components that act as a natural antibiotic?
  • Salt. Use kosher salt or sea salt.
  • Broccoli. Use fresh broccoli; let the green be impressive and bright. Don’t buy broccoli that is yellow or old.
  • Water or vegetable broth.
  • Greens: spinach, kale, baby spinach, or a mixture of chard, spinach, kale, etc. This soup is perfect when the green leaves in the fridge are already a little wilted.
  • Cilantro leaves and stems.
  • Navy beans. Navy beans, canned or home-cooked.
  • Dill, fresh or dried.
  • Lemon juice for serving because everything tastes better with a bit of lemon juice at the end.
