@abbiecornish : When I woke this morning my body was craving warm cooked greens and an easily digestible carb. So... For dinner I ended up making a Broccoli, Celery and Kale Soup with a side of Pesto Rice. I have to say this really hit the spot! Remember to nourish your body and tune into what you need right now, and use whatever you have in your kitchen. 💚✨ I freestyled this but here’s a rough recipe: In a large saucepan with a steamer basket and lid, bring one cup of water and 3 cups of vegetable stock (I like to use my own stock) to the boil. While the water and stock is heating, prepare about one and a half to two whole heads of broccoli by separating them into florets (I like to use my hands to break off the florets, and I also use the meaty half of the stalk, cutting off and discarding the bottom or end half). 2 stalks of celery broken into 3 parts so they fit in the steamer, and 2 pieces of kale. Once the water and stock is boiling place the veggies in the steamer. Cover. Cook for about 6-8 mins. Transfer the steamed veggies to a blender (setting aside the water/stock) and add a tablespoon of melted butter to the blender (or more if you like) and a pinch of salt and pepper. Then, add to the blender about one to one and a half cups of the water/stock combo you used to steam the veggies. Now blend, starting on a lower speed and working the speed up until you can blend on high for a couple of minutes. Blend till the soup is consistent and smooth. Poor into a bowl. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Add shaved Parmesan on top. And garnish with parsley or coriander if you have/or desire. For the rice, cook the rice, then add pesto (I also like to use my own) to a rice of your choice (I used white Jasmine rice today) and stir. Together they really are delicious. I like to get a little rice on my spoon and dip into the soup. Xx
