Ingredients
  

For the Soup Base
  • 1 cup Basil Adds fragrant, sweet notes; substitute with mint or cilantro for a different flavor profile.
  • 1 cup Parsley Provides a fresh, earthy flavor; can be substituted with cilantro if preferred.
  • 2 cups Spinach Offers nutrient density and a silky texture; kale or swiss chard can be used as alternatives.
  • 1 medium Onion Enhances depth of flavor; use shallots for a milder taste.
  • 2 cloves Garlic Adds aromatic warmth; adjust the amount based on personal preference.
  • 4 cups Vegetable Broth Creates the soup base with rich flavor; chicken broth is a good substitute for non-vegetarian versions.
For Creaminess
  • 1 can Coconut Milk Contributes creaminess and a subtle sweetness; heavy cream or cashew cream can replace it for a different taste.
For Sautéing
  • 1 tablespoon Olive Oil Used for sautéing aromatics; butter or ghee can be suitable replacements.

Equipment

  • Large Pot
  • immersion blender

Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Start by thoroughly washing and patting dry the fresh basil, parsley, and spinach. Remove any tough stems and chop the greens roughly.
  2. In a large pot, heat a tablespoon of olive oil over medium heat. Add minced garlic and diced onion, sautéing for about 3 minutes until they become fragrant and the onion turns translucent.
  3. Pour in the vegetable broth along with the chopped herbs and spinach into the pot. Bring the mixture to a gentle simmer, allowing it to cook for approximately 5 minutes.
  4. Using an immersion blender, carefully puree the soup until it reaches a smooth consistency, about 1-2 minutes.
  5. Return the blended soup to the pot over low heat, and stir in a can of coconut milk. Allow it to warm gently for about 3-5 minutes without boiling.
  6. Ladle the creamy Green Goddess Herb Soup into bowls, garnishing with a sprinkle of fresh herbs or a light swirl of extra coconut milk.
