Chinese Broccoli Soup Recipe

Chinese Broccoli Soup

1 packet of Ideal Protein Leek Soup         1 head of broccoli

4 cups of water                                               fresh ground pepper and chopped chives

Chicken or vegetable light broth cube or powder to taste

Boil water in a pot. Add salt. Blanch broccoli, bottoms down, in boiling water for 1-2 min only, for maximum taste and color (and greater enzyme goodness). Drain and immerse in ice-cold water to preserve the bright green color. In a blender, pour 2 cups of cold water, the packet of Ideal Protein Leek soup and the broccoli. Blend for 1 min until smooth. Dissolve broth cube or powder in 2 cups of boiling water and add to broccoli soup. Garnish with fresh ground pepper and chopped chives.
