Carol's Awesome Vegetable Soup

By JenHall

This was very tasty & very green :) Rick prefers a soup that isn't totally pureed so next time try chopping a bit, not pureeing the whole thing.

Ingredients

• 1 carrot (5.8 carbs)
• 1 stalk celery
• 3 florettes fresh broccoli
• 1 box frozen spinach (10.5 carbs)

Preparation

Step 1

Place carrot, celery & broccoli in Vita-Mix. Select variable speed 4 or 5; turn on machine for 10 seconds or until chopped.

Place remaining ingredients through ginger in the Vita-Mix container (cut frozen spinach in half or it won't get chopped up). Secure lid.

Run Vita-Mix as necessary to get the consistency you want.

Pour soup into pot, add spices & heat through.
