Ingredients
- 2 C stinging nettle
- 1 C broccoli florets
- 1/4 C sunflower seeds
- 2 tbsp flaxseeds
- 1/4 tsp turmeric powder
- 1 tbsp lemon juice
- 2 C vegetable stock
- salt and black pepper to taste
Instructions
- Steam broccoli florets until they are just fork tender. In case you’re making vegetable stock from scratch, you can cook broccoli in the same pot just when the stock is done.
- Rinse the nettle and place it in a bowl. Pour boiling water over and let it steep for few minutes to get rid of stinging. Then drain.
- Place all ingredients in a high speed blender and blend until smooth. Note that if your blender is not powerful enough, you may want to soak sunflower seeds for about 4 hours.
- Gently heat up the soup and serve.
