    1 large onion, coarsely chopped

    2 large cloves garlic, chopped

    Thumb Nib of Ginger Grated

    1 large leek, chopped

    2 large heads broccoli

    2 or pods peeled roasted green chile, whole (amount depends on how spicy you want the soup to be and how hot the chile is)

    Vegetable Stock

    1/8 to 1/4 tsp. Himalayan salt

    The Lean Green Sour Cream

    1 cup smooth amasi

    1 green pepper

    bunch of Coriander

    Mindfulness Method

    Create your soup base by sauting onions in coconut oil until translucent, add chili, garlic and

    ginger with the leeks and celery, braise for two minutes till flavors infuse and healing properties

    are active.

    Then add broccoli florets and cover with stock and cover, bring to a boil before reducing heat

    and simmer till broccoli is tender enough to blend. Blend soup (removing chilis or not) until a

    smooth, rich consistency is reached.
