    Green Spinach and Chard Soup

    In a world bustling with fast food and convenience, the renaissance of green leafy vegetables in our daily diets stands as a beacon of healthful change. Lush, verdant, and teeming with essential nutrients, green vegetables like spinach and chard are not just a fad; they are the hero ingredients of a dietary revolution that places well-being and vitality at the forefront of our meals.

    Complement your bowl of soup with a crusty piece of Keto Bread or a Raw Kale Salad for a well-rounded meal.

    Ingredients

    Serves: 5 Prep Time: 10 minutes Cook Time: 1 hour

    • 1 large onion, chopped
    • 2 tablespoon cooking fat
    • 1 ½ teaspoon sea salt
    • 1 large leek, white and light green parts, chopped
    • 1 big bunch spinach, chopped
    • 1 big bunch green Swiss chard, chopped
    • 1 large sweet potato, diced in small cubes
    • 3 tablespoon chopped fresh ginger
    • 2 cups chicken stock
    • 3 teaspoon lemon juice
    • Freshly ground black pepper to taste

    How to Make Green Spinach and Chard Soup

    Cook the onion with the fat on a low heat with some sea salt until soft and golden, about 30 minutes.

    In the mean time, in a stockpot, place the diced sweet potato, leek, spinach, chard and ginger with 4 cups of water and 1 teaspoon sea salt.

    Bring to a boil and reduce to a simmer and let simmer until the vegetables are soft, about 30 minutes. Add the onions during the simmering process when they are ready.

    Add the chicken stock and bring back to a boil.

    Remove the pot from the heat, add the lemon juice and some black pepper to taste.

    Puree in a blender or food processor, making sure not to burn yourself with the hot liquid.

    Serve in bowls with a wedge of lemon on the side and some extra grated ginger as a garnish if desired.
