Description

Green Herb Soup is a refreshing and healthy dish, packed with fresh herbs, garlic, and a hint of lemon.


Ingredients

Fresh parsley, chopped

Fresh cilantro, chopped

Spinach leaves

Chives, chopped

Olive oil

Onion, chopped

Garlic, minced

Vegetable broth

Lemon juice

Salt and black pepper

Optional: Greek yogurt or cream for a creamy version


Instructions

1. Heat olive oil in a large pot over medium heat.

2. Add chopped onions and garlic; sauté until fragrant and soft, about 3–4 minutes.

3. Add vegetable broth and bring to a simmer.

4. Stir in parsley, cilantro, spinach, and chives. Simmer for 5–7 minutes until herbs are tender.

5. Use an immersion blender to puree the soup until smooth.

6. Season with salt, pepper, and lemon juice to taste.

7. Optionally, stir in Greek yogurt or cream for a richer texture.

8. Serve hot, garnished with fresh herbs or a drizzle of olive oil.

Notes

Substitute spinach with kale, arugula, or Swiss chard.

Add a pinch of red pepper flakes for a slight kick.

Garnish with toasted seeds, croutons, or a swirl of cream for extra texture.

Make ahead and refrigerate; flavors intensify after sitting for a few hours.

For a thinner soup, add extra vegetable broth or water.
