Hello Hello!
Spring is finally happening! The sunshine, and warm weather is making me so happy, even though I do love winter activities like skiing and ice skating!
Even though the temps are warming up, I am still loving soups! I find they are perfect for lunch- not too heavy, still super filling, and so delicious! Today, I wanted to share a classic soup with a healthy twist- cause we can still eat the foods we love without sacrificing our health!
This potato soup is yes, green, because it has hidden veggies (hello, health!) and other goods which make it nutritionally dense! To make it even better, this soup is super easy (no pun intended) to make and only has 9 ingredients! It’s super creamy and great to pair with a salad or a sandwich for an amazing meal! It is also super meal-prep friendly so you can make it on Sunday for an easy lunch for the week!
Are you ready to make it?
