This soup is perfect to boost your immune system and is also great if you’re already sick. It will make you feel better because is so delicious, warm and cozy. In addition, the ingredients are awesome and have amazing health properties.
If you don’t like spicy food, omit the cayenne powder, although is so helpful if you want to remove mucus or you can’t breath properly.
Anyways, the best way to be healthy is following a balanced diet all year long, although there are some magic foods that can help us, like this miraculous green soup!

That’s amazing! Thanks Karen 🙂
I love this soup. I make it frequently. I use lite coconut milk, additional broccoli, water and kale/chard. This time I added a few garbonzo beans for protein. Awesome meal!

Really, really good. I could feel the benefits of this Green Soup immediately, I have a rotten head cold and it definately made me feel better. So easy to make too, great when you’re feeling down and energyless. Thanks for the recipe. Xxx

Hi Susan! I’m so glad you liked it 🙂 Thanks for your comment!
Well, I’ve made this soup twice a month for the past six months that we’ve been Vegan. It is incredible! After the first batch my husband said it was the best soup I’ve ever made and I’ve been making soup for many years, so that’s quite a compliment.

Hi Carolyn! I’m so glad you liked it 🙂
Hi,can I use something else instead of nutritional yeast ?
Hi! Feel free to omit nutritional yeast 🙂
I made this using frozen spinach and broccoli and it turned out delicious. Also used frozen ginger and garlic lol. Measured everything out in one container using a electronic scale the night before, poured everything in a pot the next day.. so easy! Thank you. 🙂
Sounds delicious 🙂 Have a nice day!
I tried the immune boosting green soup. Yummy! It was so good I intended to pour it over pasta but upon tasting it I ate the whole bowl and never made the pasta. It was good enough to eat to eat buy itself.
Hi Joyce! So glad you enjoyed it!
