Hoff's Glorious Greens Soup
Yields: 10 cups
meat-free, dairy-free, egg-free, oil-free, gluten-free


Ingredients:
  • 4 cups Veggie Broth
  • 4 cups Greens Water
  • 1 bunch Kale
  • 1 bunch Swiss Chard
  • 1 15 oz can Tomato Sauce
  • 1 15 oz can diced Potatoes (rinsed & drained)
  • 1 15 oz can Cannellini Beans (rinsed & drained)
  • 1 medium/large Sweet Onion (chopped)
  • 2-3 cloves of Garlic (chopped)
  • 2 tbsp Bragg Liquid Aminos (optional)
  • 2 tbsp Italian Seasonings
  • 1 tsp Onion Powder
  • 1 tsp Garlic Powder
  • 1 tsp Sea Salt

Directions:
  1. In a large stock pot over medium-high heat, bring Veggie Broth & Water to a boil
  2. Meanwhile fill a Vitamix with Kale, add enough water to cover the Kale; turn blender to high & immediately bring to low & turn off; strain chopped Kale with a wire mesh strainer, reserving water for soup
  3. Repeat with Swiss Chard
  4. Add all remaining ingredients to the pot & cover
  5. Reduce to simmer & cook for 1 hour

Hoff Thoughts: Experiment with this soup by switching out various Greens & Beans.  The glory of this soup, is that while vital nutrients from the Greens leach into the liquid, none are lost as you eat the whole soup!  A great way to get your Greens in!
