Description

A delicious and creamy soup made with fresh asparagus, spinach, and coconut milk.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 bunch asparagus (trimmed and cut into pieces)
  • 4 cups fresh spinach (washed and chopped)
  • 1 medium onion (chopped)
  • 2 cloves garlic (minced)
  • 1 medium potato (peeled and diced)
  • 4 cups vegetable broth
  • 1 cup coconut milk (for creaminess)
  • 1 teaspoon salt (to taste)
