This is the soup hubbs asks for again and again!. Simple, quick and perfect with any meal.

There is a mild spice from a little Kashmiri Garam masala, which contains Black cumin, Cassia, Coriander, Cardamom, Clove and Tellicherry Black Pepper and some cream from the cashews. This soup gets ready in 15 minutes with just one boil. No cooking for hours. You can also serve it raw. I dont digest most things completely raw, so a little heat does the trick for me.

We get lots of Fresh Spinach, the whole plant, roots and all from our local and organic farm! see those huge leaves in the pictures. This soup is headed to Hearth and Soul Blog hop, Slightly indulgent Tuesdays. and Rickis’ wellness weekend!
