This was lunch! Creamy Veggie and Sweet Potato Soup
Low in calories, but very high in fiber, vitamins and minerals. Very satisfying!
Place in steamer basket and steam until tender:
Peeled, sliced Carrots
Sliced Zucchini
Sliced Sweet Potato (leave the peel on)
Optional: some slices of red apple (such as fuji), leave peel on
Place into frypan:
Irish Butter (European butter...it's rich and delicious, as well as very healthy)
1 can rinsed white beans
herbs of choice (bay leaf, oregano, garlic powder, rosemary is what I used today)
Salt (add enough to make it nicely salty, and use Unrefined salt!!)
**heat and simmer briefly until flavors blend
Place into Blender Jar:
Chicken stock or broth
More water if needed to make thinner soup
steamed Veggies
A little bit of Salt
**Blend until smooth and creamy. You will see flecks of zucchini peel.
Serve creamy soup in heated bowls, and top with the butter/beans. Sprinkle additional Salt or Seasoned Salt or Pepper if desired. Garnish with sprig of herbs.
