1.Spring Pea Soup
Ingredients
• 10 oz. fresh or frozen raw peas
• 1 medium avocado, halved and pitted, flesh scooped out
• 1 cup filtered water
• 1 cup almond milk (unsweetened)
• 2 tablespoons lime juice
• pinch of sea salt
• 1/2 teaspoon chili powder (optional)
Directions: In a blender or food processor, puree all ingredients until smooth. To serve, drizzle with olive oil and freshly ground black pepper.
2.Cool as a Cucumber Soup with Dill
Ingredients
• 3 cucumbers, peeled and seeds removed
• Juice of one lemon
• 1/2 cup raw cashews or macadamia nuts
• 4 cups fresh water
• 1/4 cup fresh dill (or 1/8 cup dried dill)
• 1 teaspoon sea salt
• 2 tablespoons olive oil
Directions: Mix all ingredients, except the dill, together in a blender or food processor for 3 minutes or until smooth. Add dill and pulse or blend for a few extra seconds. Serve chilled with fresh dill garnishes and freshly ground black pepper. Note: Use Celtic salt or pink Himalayan salt if possible.
3.Creamy Leek And Carrot Soup
Ingredients
• 1 leek
• 2 tablespoons coconut oil
• 4 cups of chopped carrots
• 1 cup of cauliflower, cut into florets
• 1-1/2 quarts chicken or vegetable stock
• fresh thyme
Directions: Melt the coconut oil in a large soup pot over medium-high heat. Slice the leek into rounds, and add it to the pot. Stir and cook for 3-4 minutes or until lightly browned. Stir in the chopped carrots and cook, stirring, for another 3-4 minutes. Pour in the stock to cover the veggies. Cover and gently simmer for 15 minutes.
Let the contents cool a bit and then pour into a blender or food processor. Puree with the additional tablespoon of coconut oil until smooth and creamy. Pour back into pot and gently reheat, so you can serve it warm. (Or in summer months, you can skip this step and put it in the fridge to cool instead)
