Ingredients

  • 1 bunch asparagus - roughly chopped
  • 1 onion - sliced
  • 2 celery sticks - sliced
  • 1 medium zucchini - diced
  • 1 handful spinach
  • 1 bay leaf
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil - plus extra for serving
  • Salt and pepper - to taste
  • Garnish:
  • Dried onion - optional

Instructions

  • Put all the ingredients except for the dried onion in a medium soup pot. Cover with water. Bring to a boil, lower the heat, and simmer. Cook for 20 minutes. Remove from the heat and let cool for 5 minutes before blending.
  • Blend until smooth and silky. Serve in bowls with a drizzle of olive oil and dried onion.
  • Note: You can sauté the vegetables in the olive oil before adding water, but honestly it's unnecessary. The soup is delicious as is.
