Superfood Soup!

Bonjour folks!!

My lovely fiancee was feeling a bit worse for wear after his trip to the dentist & he asked for something soft for tea bless him... that coupled with the fact we're going on holiday Friday & need to eat up all our fresh veg I made this!

Basically you'll need: (Serves 4)


  • 2 large onions, chopped
  • 1 clove of garlic (I used smoked because its amazing) chopped
  • 4 or 5 stalks of asparagus chopped
  • 2 fresh beetroot, peeled & chopped (I would use gloves if you dont want red fingers)
  • 150g or a colander full of chopped & washed curly Kale
  • 1 red pepper, chopped
  • 2 or 3 balls of frozen spinach or 2 hand fulls of fresh
  • 1/2 tea spoon of chilli flakes (or more/less to taste)
  • 1/2 tea spoon of herbs (mixed dried)
  • 1 chicken stock cube 
  • 1 large carrot, peeled & chopped
  • salt & pepper 


How:


  • Fry off your onion & Garlic in a little fry light
  • Add your chopped carrot, pepper, asparagus, chilli flakes, herbs & beetroot 
  • Cover in water & add the stock cube 
  • Bring to the boil & then reduce to a simmer & cook until all your harder veg are soft
  • Add your spinach & Kale
  • simmer until soft
  • season
  • Blitz with a blender 


I served mine with a chicken breast cooked on top with a spoonful of Quark in the middle to hit my macros!
