Energy Soup Recipe

Ingredients:

2 leaves Romaine lettuce
4 leaves turnip or collard greens
2 leaves dark green kale or spinach
1 cup sunflower and pea shoot greens
1 zucchini or yellow squash
1 cucumber
1 large apple or pear
1 cup fresh sprouts (mung, alfalfa, red clover, fenugreek)
2 tablespoons dulse flakes ( or any sea vegetable kelp, nori etc)
1 cup rejuvelac (water if you don't have any)
1/2 of an avocado

Blend until just warm, not steamy, in your blendtec, vitamix etc.

Enjoy! Blending aids in digestion, this soup is great for lunch just don't microwave or cook it. If you want to warm it up a little, try using two bowls, boil some water, put boiling water in one bowl and your energy soup in another and place the soup bowl on top of the water bowl much like a double boiler and stir until desired temp. Hopefully your bowls work as well as mine do for this idea. You can also warm it up in your dehydrator. Feel free to tweak this basic recipe any way you want to, I always try different things when making this recipe. Add garlic, herbs or whatever seasonings you like. Yum!
