]]> Creamy-Asparagus-and-Pea-Soup-Vegan-9-ingredients-SO-healthy-vegan-glutenfree

I love this soup for so many reasons but mostly because it’s super easy and really good! A wonderful juice shop in NYC made this soup for a holiday party I had this year and it was such a hit with healthy eaters and especially non healthy eaters alike. I knew this would be a recipe I had to share, especially with temps dropping and people needing warm, nourishing meals. Enjoy!

 It’s finally soup season! Even though it’s still pretty warm in NYC, I’m embracing November and all the root veggies that come with it. I love butternut squash and this creamy (but dairy free) soup hits the spot on a chilly day. Add some hemp seeds for protein and you’ll be totally satisfied.

]]> Kiwi and Kale Gazpacho

I didn’t grow up being a cold soup kinda girl. I loved soup but just couldn’t get on board with “summer soups.” Luckily in the last few years I’ve started to try different gazpacho’s and realized that I’ve really been missing out!

I saw a version of this green gazpacho in a cookbook recently and just had to try it. While you might be used to tomato based gazpacho’s, this one is high in nutrients and low in calories with both kiwi and kale having high counts of vitamin C. Did you know that eating kale is beneficial for maintaining healthy skin, hair and strong bones, as well as helping with digestion and lowering the risk for heart disease? Like the sound of all of that? Give this summer gazpacho recipe a try!

Kiwi & Kale Gazpacho

Serves 4

Ingredients:

~ 5 cups steamed kale

~ 2 kiwis, peeled and cut in quarters

~ 1 green bell pepper, cored, seeded and cut into pieces

~ 2 cloves garlic, cut into pieces

~ 1 small jalapeno, quartered and seeded (optional)

~ 2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil

~ 2 tablespoons sherry vinegar

~ Himalayan sea salt to taste

Directions:

~ Place all ingredients in a food processor and process until smooth

~ Cover and refrigerate for about an hour before serving
