Ingredients

Scale

Herbs and Greens

  • 1 cup fresh basil leaves
  • 1 cup fresh parsley leaves
  • 2 cups fresh spinach

Liquids and Oils

  • 4 cups low-sodium vegetable broth
  • 1 cup full-fat coconut milk
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil

Other

  • 4 cloves garlic, minced

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Greens: Wash and dry the basil, parsley, and spinach thoroughly to remove any dirt or grit and ensure a clean, fresh base for your soup.
  2. Sauté the Garlic: In a large pot over medium heat, warm the olive oil. Add the minced garlic and sauté for about 1 minute until fragrant, being careful not to burn it for the best flavor.
  3. Add the Herbs and Broth: Add the chopped basil, parsley, and spinach to the pot. Pour in the low-sodium vegetable broth and stir everything together to combine the flavors.
  4. Simmer the Soup: Allow the mixture to simmer gently for 5 minutes, letting the herbs infuse the broth while softening the greens.
  5. Blend to Smooth: Use an immersion blender directly in the pot or transfer the soup in batches to a regular blender. Blend until completely smooth and creamy for a luscious texture.
  6. Finish with Coconut Milk: Return the blended soup to low heat, stir in the full-fat coconut milk, and warm through without boiling to preserve the coconut flavor and creaminess.
  7. Serve and Garnish: Ladle the hot soup into bowls and garnish with additional fresh herbs or a swirl of coconut milk for an elegant presentation.

Notes

  • You can adjust the thickness of the soup by adding more vegetable broth if a thinner consistency is preferred.
  • For a nuttier flavor, try garnishing with toasted pine nuts or a sprinkle of nutritional yeast.
  • This soup is naturally vegan, dairy-free, and gluten-free.
  • If you like a bit of spice, add a pinch of red pepper flakes while sautéing the garlic.
  • Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
